Ken Kesey
“Because he knows you have to laugh at the things that hurt you just to keep yourself in balance, just to keep the world from running you plumb crazy. He knows there's a painful side; he knows my thumb smarts and his girlfriend has a bruised breast and the doctor is losing his glasses, but he won't let the pain blot out the humor no more'n he'll let the humor blot out the pain.”
Ken Kesey

Arundhati Roy
“Heaven opened and the water hammered down, reviving the reluctant old well, greenmossing the pigless pigsty, carpet bombing still, tea-colored puddles the way memory bombs still, tea-colored minds.”
Arundhati Roy, The God of Small Things

E.M. Forster
“Life is easy to chronicle, but bewildering to practice.”
E.M. Forster, A Room With A View

E.M. Forster
“He was interested in the sudden friendship between two women so apparently dissimilar as Miss Bartlett and Miss Lavish. They were always in each other's company, with Lucy a slighted third. Miss Lavish he believed he understood, but Miss Bartlett might reveal unknown depths of strangeness, though not, perhaps, of meaning.”
E. M. Forster, A Room with a View

Ken Kesey
“You can't really be strong until you can see a funny side to things.”
Ken Kesey
