Herman Melville
“See how elastic our prejudices grow when once love comes to bend them.”
Herman Melville, Moby-Dick or, The Whale

John Irving
“If you are careful,' Garp wrote, 'if you use good ingredients, and you don't take any shortcuts, then you can usually cook something very good. Sometimes it is the only worthwhile product you can salvage from a day; what you make to eat. With writing, I find, you can have all the right ingredients, give plenty of time and care, and still get nothing. Also true of love. Cooking, therefore, can keep a person who tries hard sane.”
John Irving, The World According to Garp

George Saunders
“My heart goes out to him. Sort of. Because empathy depends on how you've spent your day.”
George Saunders, The Braindead Megaphone

Albert Einstein
“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”
Albert Einstein

Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“Since Alice had never received any religious instruction, and since she had led a blameless life, she never thought of her awful luck as being anything but accidents in a very busy place. Good for her.”
Kurt Vonnegut, Slapstick, or Lonesome No More!
