Lavie Tidhar
“The Tripitaka, he said, did not follow the eightfold path. His nature is to stray, to be lost, to err. Only by journeying so can he learn to follow the true path.”
Lavie Tidhar, Jesus and the Eightfold Path

James Joyce
“Stately, plump Buck Mulligan came from the stairhead, bearing a bowl of lather on which a mirror and a razor lay crossed.”
James Joyce, Ulysses

Tim O'Brien
“That's what fiction is for. It's for getting at the truth when the truth isn't sufficient for the truth.”
Tim O'Brien

Djuna Barnes
“A man is whole only when he takes into account his shadow.”
Djuna Barnes

Paul Bowles
“And it occurred to him that a walk through the countryside was a sort of epitome of the passage through life itself. One never took the time to savor the details; one said: another day, but always with the hidden knowledge that each day was unique and final, that there never would be a return, another time.”
Paul Bowles, The Sheltering Sky
