Book cover for The Bad Angel Brothers
I came to see that for him, for most sociopaths, he had no memory—took no responsibility for anything he’d said or done—had no past, no history, it never happened. Memory is essential to conscience; he had no conscience.
Mike Lambert
Paul Theroux's The Bad Angel Brothers is a terrific book, well worth it.

Herman Melville
“There is nothing namable but that some men will, or undertake to, do it for pay.”
Herman Melville

Hilary Mantel
“Give me time,” she said mockingly. “That’s the anthem of the married man. Give me time while I make my excuses, give me time while I sort out my head. Just another week, just another decade, just till my wife understands. Be reasonable, give me time, just till my children grow up, give me time. And what do you suppose time will give to me?”
Hilary Mantel, Every Day Is Mother's Day

Mark Manson
“You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life.”
Mark Manson, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck: A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life

Willa Cather
“Nothing is far and nothing is near, if one desires. The world is little, people are little, human life is little. There is only one big thing--desire.”
Willa Cather, Works of Willa Cather. Alexander's Bridge, O Pioneers!, Song of the Lark, My Antonia, One of Ours, Stories & more

D.H. Lawrence
“Truth does not lie beyond humanity, but is one of the products of the human mind and feeling. There is really nothing to fear. The motive of fear in religion is base, and must be left to the ancient worshippers of power, worship of Moloch. We do not worship power, in our enlightened souls. Power is degenerated to money and Napoleonic stupidity.”
D.H. Lawrence, Delphi Collected Works of D. H. Lawrence
