“I found the world to be woefully lacking in safe places. So, I became one.”
― J. Warren Welch

“In the deeper hours of the night I began to look at myself, to consider myself and my condition, to measure the life I'd led so far. I did not know what made me this way. I did not know of any other way I could be. I did not know what was inside me or how I could redeem what was hidden there. There must be a key or person or thing, or song or poem or belief, or old saw that could access it, but they all seemed so far away, and after I drifted further and further into self-absorption, I closed the evening with this desolate thought: there are few takers for the quiet heart.”
― Steve Martin, The Pleasure of My Company

“Without words, the Fuhrer was nothing.”
― Markus Zusak, The Book Thief

“Thinking too much also creates the illusion of causal connections between unrelated events.”
― Steve Martin, The Pleasure of My Company
