"I've been reading this book for close to two years and I think I'm only a few pages in. Everyone raves about it so I feel I have to keep plodding but my god I loathe it. Maybe it's just the writing style but I just can't care." May 17, 2015 02:57PM

Mary Higgins Clark
“Funny, when you finally faced reality, it was amazing how clearly you could see things.”
Mary Higgins Clark, Loves Music, Loves to Dance

D.H. Lawrence
“For my part, I prefer my heart to be broken. It is so lovely, dawn-kaleidoscopic within the crack.”
D.H. Lawrence

Roald Amundsen
“Adventure is just bad planning.”
Roald Amundsen

Stendhal
“One can acquire everything in solitude except character.”
Stendhal, Five Short Novels of Stendhal
