Philip Roth
“This is what happens when you write books. There’s not just something that drives you to find out everything—something begins putting everything in your path.”
Philip Roth, The Human Stain

Thomas Pynchon
“The under-lying Condition of their Lives is quickly establish’d as the Need to keep, as others a permanent address, a perfect Latitude,— no fix’d place, rather a fix’d Motion,— Westering. Whenever they do stop moving, like certain Stars in Chinese Astrology, they lose their Invisibility, and revert to the indignity of being observ’d and available again for earthly purposes.”
Thomas Pynchon, Mason & Dixon

Philip Roth
“Could it be because who he really was was entirely his secret? He did love secrets. The secret of nobody's knowing what was going on in your head, thinking whatever you wanted to think with no way of anybody's knowing. All the other kids were always blabbing about themselves. But that wasn’t where the power was or the pleasure either. The power and pleasure were to be found in the opposite, in being counterconfessional in the same way you were a counterpuncher, and he knew that with nobody having to tell him and without his having to think about it.”
Philip Roth, The Human Stain

Marilynne Robinson
“Sylvie did not want to lose me. She did not want me to grow gigantic and multiple, so that I seemed to fill the whole house, and she did not wish me to turn subtle and miscible, so that I could pass through the membranes that separate dream and dream. She did not wish to remember me. She much preferred my simple, ordinary presence, silent and ungainly though I might be”
Marilynne Robinson, Housekeeping

Philip Roth
“I never again want to hear that self-admiring voice of yours or see your smug fucking lily-white face.”
Philip Roth, The Human Stain
