Noël Coward
“Having to read footnotes resembles having to go downstairs to answer the door while in the midst of making love.”
Noel Coward

Roland Barthes
“What right does my present have to speak of my past? Has my present some advantage over my past? What "grace" might have enlightened me? except that of passing time, or of a good cause, encountered on my way?”
Roland Barthes, Roland Barthes

Chinua Achebe
“People create stories create people; or rather stories create people create stories.”
Chinua Achebe

Julian Barnes
“It seemed...that intelligence wasn't as pure and unalterable a characteristic as people believed. Being intelligent was like being good: you could be virtuous in one person's company and yet wicked in another's. You could be intelligent with one person and stupid with another. It was partly to do with confidence...In a way she had been more confident when she had been eighteen and foolish. At twenty-three, with Michael, she felt less confident and therefore less intelligent.”
Julian Barnes, Staring at the Sun

Walter Benjamin
“Es bringt uns nämlich nicht weiter, die rätselhafte Seite am Rätselhaften pathetisch oder fanatisch zu unterstreichen; vielmehr durchdringen wir das Geheimnis nur in dem Grade, als wir es im Alltäglichen wiederfinden, kraft einer dialektischen Optik, die das Alltägliche als undurchdringlich, das Undurchdringliche als alltäglich erkennt...”
Walter Benjamin
