Jim Carroll
“I'll Die For Your Sins If You Live For mine.


Jim Carroll, Fear of Dreaming: The Selected Poems

Ross Macdonald
“It was some time since I had gone to sleep in the same room with a girl. Of course, the room was large and reasonably well-lighted, and the girl had other things than me on her mind.”
Ross MacDonald, The Blue Hammer

Charles Willeford
“My work is one long triumph over my limitations.”
Charles Willeford, The Second Half of the Double Feature

Adam Zagajewski
“Try to praise the mutilated world.
Remember June’s long days,
and wild strawberries, drops of wine, the dew.
The nettles that methodically overgrow
the abandoned homesteads of exiles.
You must praise the mutilated world.
You watched the stylish yachts and ships;
one of them had a long trip ahead of it,
while salty oblivion awaited others.
You’ve seen the refugees heading nowhere,
You’ve heard the executioners sing joyfully.
You should praise the mutilated world.
Remember the moments when we were together
in a white room and the curtain fluttered.
Return in thought to the concert where music flared.
You gathered acorns in the park in autumn
and leaves eddied over the earth's scars.
Praise the mutilated world
and the gray feathers a thrush lost,
and the gentle light that strays and vanishes
and returns.”
Adam Zagajewski

Walter Benjamin
“The only way of knowing a person is to love them without hope.”
Walter Benjamin
