David Foster Wallace
“I'll say God seems to have a kind of laid-back management style I'm not crazy about. I'm pretty much anti-death. God looks by all accounts to be pro-death. I'm not seeing how we can get together on this issue, he and I...”
David Foster Wallace, Infinite Jest

David Foster Wallace
“Mario, what do you get when you cross an insomniac, an unwilling agnostic and a dyslexic?"

"I give."

"You get someone who stays up all night torturing himself mentally over the question of whether or not there's a dog.”
David Foster Wallace, Infinite Jest

Graham Greene
“The sense of unhappiness is so much easier to convey than that of happiness. In misery we seem aware of our own existence, even though it may be in the form of a monstrous egotism: this pain of mine is individual, this nerve that winces belongs to me and to no other. But happiness annihilates us: we lose our identity.”
Graham Greene, The End of the Affair

Dave Eggers
“All I ever wanted was to know what to do.”
Dave Eggers, You Shall Know Our Velocity!

Larry McMurtry
“It's like I told you last night son. The earth is mostly just a boneyard. But pretty in the sunlight, he added”
Larry McMurtry, Lonesome Dove
