John Burnside
“I want to venture a hypothesis that, roughly expressed, goes like this: you cannot learn to love yourself until you find something in the world to love; no matter what it is. A dog, a garden, a tree,a flight of birds, a friend...Because what we love in ourselves is ourselves loving.”
― John Burnside

John Dos Passos
“all right we are two nations”
― John Dos Passos, The Big Money

John Banville
“I have achieved nothing, nothing. I am what I always was, alone as always, locked in the same old glass prison of myself.”
― John Banville

Hans Fallada
“The trembling increased, a moan of grief was heard, nothing articulate - as a bird in the night sometimes laments alone.”
― Hans Fallada

John Burnside
“As a lifetime proposition, happiness is a discipline, no doubt; but for moments at a time, it's a piece of luck. A piece of luck and a clue: a hint, not just of what might be, but of what already exists, in the heart of a man's heart...”
― John Burnside, A Lie About My Father: A Memoir
