John Milton
“What hath night to do with sleep?”
John Milton, Paradise Lost

Marguerite Duras
“Finding yourself in a hole, at the bottom of a hole, in almost total solitude, and discovering that only writing can save you. To be without the slightest subject for a book, the slightest idea for a book, is to find yourself, once again, before a book. A vast emptiness. A possible book. Before nothing. Before something like living, naked writing, like something terrible, terrible to overcome.”
Marguerite Duras, Writing

Roald Amundsen
“Adventure is just bad planning.”
Roald Amundsen

Jim  Butcher
“Sleep is God. Go worship.”
Jim Butcher, Death Masks

Thomas  Harris
“I think it's easy to mistake understanding for empathy - we want empathy so badly. Maybe learning to make that distinction is part of growing up. It's hard and ugly to know somebody can understand you without even liking you.”
Thomas Harris, Hannibal
