David Foster Wallace
“Fiction’s about what it is to be a fucking human being.”
David Foster Wallace

David Foster Wallace
“You have decided being scared is caused mostly by thinking. ”
David Foster Wallace

Hélène Cixous
“We should write as we dream; we should even try and write, we should all do it for ourselves, it’s very healthy, because it’s the only place where we never lie. At night we don’t lie. Now if we think that our whole lives are built on lying-they are strange buildings-we should try and write as our dreams teach us; shamelessly, fearlessly, and by facing what is inside very human being-sheer violence, disgust, terror, shit, invention, poetry. In our dreams we are criminals; we kill, and we kill with a lot of enjoyment. But we are also the happiest people on earth; we make love as we never make love in life.”
Helene Cixous

David Foster Wallace
“Try to learn to let what is unfair teach you.”
David Foster Wallace, Infinite Jest

David Foster Wallace
“I had kind of a midlife crisis at twenty which probably doesn’t augur well for my longevity”
David Foster Wallace
