John Irving
“You take every opportunity given you in this world, even if you have too many opportunities. One day, the opportunities stop, you know.”
John Irving, The Hotel New Hampshire

John Irving
“When someone you love dies, and you're not expecting it, you don't lose her all at once; you lose her in pieces over a long time—the way the mail stops coming, and her scent fades from the pillows and even from the clothes in her closet and drawers. Gradually, you accumulate the parts of her that are gone. Just when the day comes—when there's a particular missing part that overwhelms you with the feeling that she's gone, forever—there comes another day, and another specifically missing part.”
John Irving, A Prayer for Owen Meany

John Irving
“There was no manifestation of contemporary culture that did not indicate to my grandmother how steadfast was the nation's decline, how merciless our mental and moral deterioration, how swiftly all-embracing our final decadence. I never saw her read a book again; but she referred to books often - as if they were shrines and cathedrals of learning that television had plundered and then abandoned.”
John Irving, A Prayer for Owen Meany

John Irving
“… and so he tried to accept the ache in his heart as what Dr. Larch would call the common symptoms of normal life.”
John Irving, The Cider House Rules

John Irving
“If you can't love crudeness, how can you truly love mankind?”
John Irving, My Movie Business: A Memoir
