Sheila Heti
“There's so much beauty in this world that it's hard to begin. There are no words with which to express my gratitude at having been given this one chance to live - if not Live. Let other people frequent the nightclubs in their tight-ass skirts and Live. I'm just sitting here, vibrating in my apartment, at having been given this one chance to live.”
Sheila Heti, How Should a Person Be?

“Causation extraction makes Jack a dull reader.”
Rabih Alameddine, An Unnecessary Woman

“I know. You think you love art because you have a sensitive soul.

Isn't a sensitive soul simply a means of transforming a deficiency into proud disdain?

You think art has meaning. You think you're not like me.”
Rabih Alameddine, An Unnecessary Woman

“I slipped into art to escape life. I sneaked off into literature.”
Rabih Alameddine, An Unnecessary Woman

Rabih Alameddine
“When I read a book, I try my best, not always successfully, to let the wall crumble just a bit, the barricade that separates me from the book. I try to be involved.
I am Raskalnikov. I am K. I am Humbert and Lolita.
I am you.
If you read these pages and think I'm the way I am because I lived through a civil war, you can't feel my pain. If you believe you're not like me because one woman, and only one, Hannah, chose to be my friend, then you're unable to empathize.”
Rabih Alameddine, An Unnecessary Woman
