William Faulkner
“You cannot swim for new horizons until you have courage to lose sight of the shore.”
William Faulkner

John Steinbeck
“I have many homes, some that I have not seen yet. Maybe that is why I am restless; I have not yet known all of my homes”
John Steinbeck

William Styron
“Let's face it, writing is hell.”
William Styron

Jan Zábrana
“Nejlepší, co jsem na tomhle světě viděl, bylo nebe, nejlepší, co jsem na něm sylšel, bylo ticho a to nejlepší, co jsem v něm poznal, byla samota.”
Jan Zábrana, Celý život

Cormac McCarthy
“Finally he said that if men drink the blood of God yet they do not understand the seriousness of what they do. He said that men wish to be serious but they do not understand how to be so. Between their acts and their ceremonies lies the world and in this world the storms blow and the trees twist in the wind and all the animals that God has made go to and fro yet this world men do not see. They see the acts of their own hands or they see that which they name and call out to one another but the world between is invisible to them”
Cormac McCarthy, The Crossing
