Amor Towles
“I do believe that the Good Lord has a mission for each and every one of us—a mission that is forgiving of our weaknesses, tailored to our strengths, and designed with only us in mind. But maybe He doesn’t come knocking on our door and present it to us all frosted like a cake. Maybe, just maybe what He requires of us, what He expects of us, what He hopes for us is that—like His only begotten Son—we will go out into the world and find it for ourselves.”
Amor Towles, The Lincoln Highway

“And I do it because it’s unnecessary. For what is kindness but the performance of an act that is both beneficial to another and unrequired?”
Amor Towles, The Lincoln Highway

Amor Towles
“How easily we forget-we in the business of storytelling- that life was the point all along.”
Amor Towles, The Lincoln Highway

Amor Towles
“But being grateful was one thing, and being beholden, that was another thing altogether.”
Amor Towles, The Lincoln Highway

Amor Towles
“If you take a trait that by all appearances is a merit—a trait that is praised by pastors and poets, a trait that we have come to admire in our friends and hope to foster in our children—and you give it to some poor soul in abundance, it will almost certainly prove an obstacle to their happiness. Just as someone can be too smart for their own good, there are those who are too patient for their own good, or too hardworking.”
Amor Towles, The Lincoln Highway
