Jennifer Egan
“The monkey’s face had more emotions than a human’s: curiosity, pity, exhaustion, like he’d already seen too much. Danny had to look away.”
Jennifer Egan, The Keep

Claire Kendal
“The nice word for you is methodical. Obsessive-compulsive is the meaner phrase, and one you’ve truly earned.”
Claire Kendal, The Book of You

David Foster Wallace
“Sometimes he finds out he believes something that he doesn’t even know he believed until it exits his mouth in front of five anxious little hairless plump trusting clueless faces.”
David Foster Wallace, Infinite Jest

Italo Calvino
“A classic is a book that has never finished saying what it has to say.”
Italo Calvino, The Uses of Literature

Cheryl Strayed
“You might, for example, be interested to know that the word “prestigious” is derived from the Latin praestigiae, which means “conjuror’s tricks.” Isn’t that interesting? This word that we use to mean honorable and esteemed has its beginnings in a word that has everything to do with illusion, deception, and trickery.”
Cheryl Strayed, Tiny Beautiful Things: Advice on Love and Life from Dear Sugar
