David Levithan
“Getting what you want is just as difficult as not getting what you want. Because then you have to figure out what to do with it instead of figuring out what to do without it. ”
David Levithan, The Realm of Possibility

Albert Camus
“At any street corner the feeling of absurdity can strike any man in the face.”
Albert Camus

Albert Camus
“I know that man is capable of great deeds. But if he isn't capable of great emotion, well, he leaves me cold.”
Albert Camus, The Plague

Albert Camus
“Thus I progressed on the surface of life, in the realm of words as it were, never in reality. All those books barely read, those friends barely loved, those cities barely visited, those women barely possessed! I went through the gestures out of boredom or absent-mindedness. Then came human beings; they wanted to cling, but there was nothing to cling to, and that was unfortunate--for them. As for me, I forgot. I never remembered anything but myself.”
Albert Camus, The Fall

J.D. Salinger
“What really knocks me out is a book that, when you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it. That doesn't happen much, though.”
J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye
