Chang-rae Lee
“For sometimes you can't help but crave some ruin in what you love.”
Chang-rae Lee, On Such a Full Sea

Fyodor Dostoevsky
“I could not become anything; neither good nor bad; neither a scoundrel nor an honest man; neither a hero nor an insect. And now I am eking out my days in my corner, taunting myself with the bitter and entirely useless consolation that an intelligent man cannot seriously become anything, that only a fool can become something.”
Fyodor Dostoevsky, Notes from Underground, White Nights, The Dream of a Ridiculous Man, and Selections from The House of the Dead

Colum McCann
“The world spins. We stumble on. It is enough.”
Colum McCann, Let the Great World Spin

F. Scott Fitzgerald
“Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but that's no matter--tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther.... And one fine morning-- So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.”
F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby

J.J. Connolly
“You’re born, you take shit

get out in the world, you take more shit

climb a little higher, take less shit.

till one day you're in the rarefied atmosphere and you’ve forgotten what shit even looks like.

Welcome to the layer cake, son.”
J. J. Connolly, Layer Cake
