Book cover for So Long, See You Tomorrow
I could not tell whether the heavy feeling in my chest had to do with what might happen or with what had already happened and was irremediable.

Jay McInerney
“Things happen, people change,' is what Amanda said. For her that covered it. You wanted an explanation, and ending that would assign blame and dish up justice. You considered violence and you considered reconciliation . But what you are left with is a premonition of the way your life will fade behind you, like a book you have read too quickly, leaving a dwindling trail of images and emotions, until all you can remember is a name.”
Jay McInerney, Bright Lights, Big City

Richard Yates
“It's a disease. Nobody thinks or feels or cares any more; nobody gets excited or believes in anything except their own comfortable little God damn mediocrity.”
Richard Yates, Revolutionary Road

Richard Yates
“You want to play house, you got to have a job. You want to play very nice house, very sweet house, then you got to have a job you don't like. Great. This is the way ninety-eight-point-nine per cent of the people work things out, so believe me, buddy, you've got nothing to apologize for.”
Richard Yates, Revolutionary Road

François-René de Chateaubriand
“La vie me sied mal; le mort m'ira peut-être mieux.”
François-René de Chateaubriand, Mémoires d'Outre-Tombe

Richard Yates
“Know what we did, Lucy? You and me? We spent our whole lives yearning. Isn't that the God damndest thing?”
Richard Yates, Young Hearts Crying
