David Foster Wallace
“Why not? Why not? Why not not, then, if the best reasoning you can contrive is why not?”
David Foster Wallace, Infinite Jest

Nick Hornby
“Do you ever do that thing where you lie in bed and you can't sleep so you end up writing out recent conversation you've had? So they look like a play?'

Well you should. It's fun. I keep them. Look through them, sometimes.”
Nick Hornby, How to Be Good

David Foster Wallace
“To make someone an icon is to make him an abstraction, and abstractions are incapable of vital communication with living people.”
David Foster Wallace, Consider the Lobster and Other Essays

David Foster Wallace
“....there is an ending [to Infinite Jest] as far as I'm concerned. Certain kind of parallel lines are supposed to start converging in such a way that an "end" can be projected by the reader somewhere beyond the right frame. If no such convergence or projection occured to you, then the book's failed for you.”
David Foster Wallace

David Foster Wallace
“Footnote: 79) The anchor is gigantic and must weigh a hundred tons, and -- delightfully -- it really is anchor-shaped, i.e. the same shape as anchors in tattoos.”
David Foster Wallace, A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again: Essays and Arguments
