“She is a loner, too bright for the slutty girls and too savage for the bright girls, haunting the edges and corners of the school like a sullen disillusioned ghost”
Eleanor Catton, The Rehearsal

Stendhal
“Oh, if there were only a true religion. Fool that I am, I see a Gothic cathedral and venerable stained-glass windows, and my weak heart conjures up the priest to fit the scene. My soul would understand him, my soul has need of him. I only find a nincompoop with dirty hair.”
Stendhal, The Red and the Black

“Never underestimate how extraordinarily difficult it is to understand a situation from another person's point of view.”
Eleanor Catton, The Luminaries

Stendhal
“Each man for himself in that desert of egoism which is called life.”
Stendhal, The Red and the Black

“Reason is no match for desire: when desire is purely and powerfully felt, it becomes a kind of reason of its own.”
Eleanor Catton, The Luminaries
