Book cover for The Last Man (Annotated)
So true it is, that man's mind alone was the creator of all that was good or great to man, and that Nature herself was only his first minister.

Italo Calvino
“If one wanted to depict the whole thing graphically, every episode, with its climax, would require a three-dimensional, or, rather, no model: every experience is unrepeatable. What makes lovemaking and reading resemble each other most is that within both of them times and spaces open, different from measurable time and space.”
― Italo Calvino, If on a Winter's Night a Traveler

James Joyce
“And if he had judged her harshly? If her life were a simple rosary of hours, her life simple and strange as a bird's life, gay in the morning, restless all day, tired at sundown? Her heart simple and willful as a bird's heart?”
― James Joyce, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man

Paulo Coelho
“It's the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting.”
― Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist

Haruki Murakami
“Listen up - there's no war that will end all wars.”
― Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore

Paulo Coelho
“When we love, we always strive to become better than we are. When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too.”
― Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist
