Mark Twain
“Give a man a reputation as an early riser and he can sleep 'til noon.”
Mark Twain

Elena Ferrante
“The circle of an empty day is brutal and at night it tightens around your neck like a noose.”
Elena Ferrante, The Days of Abandonment

John McGahern
“There are no things more cruel than truths about ourselves spoken to us by another that are perceived to be at least half true. Left unsaid and hidden we feel they can be changed or eradicated, in time.”
John McGahern, The Collected Stories of John McGahern

Christopher Hitchens
“Everybody does have a book in them, but in most cases that's where it should stay.”
Christopher Hitchens

Lawrence Wright
“Radicalism usually prospers in the gap between rising expectations and declining opportunities. This is especially true where the population is young, idle, and bored; where the art is impoverished; where entertainment—movies, theater, music—is policed or absent altogether; and where young men are set apart from the consoling and socializing presence of women.”
Lawrence Wright, The Looming Tower
