"People who fantasize about living on the beach--this was what they never figured. After a while, the ocean view, the salt air, even the thunderous ocean song disappears, and you are left with yourself, your place in the scheme of things. All that you reach for and all you can't hold runs up before you like the tide and reaches for you. It takes a very strong soul to keep from getting swept away." — Jun 01, 2025 07:20PM

"During both sessions, Greta could hear Big Swiss's voice in the background, as if she were talking to someone in the next room, but whenever Greta paused the audio, the voice was still there. Apparently, Big Swiss's voice had earwormed itself into Greta's brain. It played for hours and was as difficult to shake as "Come On Eileen" or "Penny Lane."" — Feb 12, 2025 05:43PM

“The studio is torn down, all the people who played on it are dead, the instruments have been sold off. But you are listening to a moment that happened in time sixty years ago and you are hearing it just as sharp as when it was made. That remains an amazing thing to me.”

“The thing that makes me happy is that I know that on Mars, two hundred years from now, my books are going to be read. They’ll be up on dead Mars with no atmosphere. And late at night, with a flashlight, some little boy is going to peek under the covers and read The Martian Chronicles on Mars.”
