George Saunders
“Strange, isn't it? To have dedicated one's life to a certain venture, neglecting other aspects of one's life, only to have that venture, in the end, amount to nothing at all, the products of one's labors ultimately forgotten?”
George Saunders, Lincoln in the Bardo

Dante Alighieri
“Within her presence, I had once been used
to feeling—trembling—wonder, dissolution;
but that was long ago. Still, though my soul,
now she was veiled, could not see her directly,
by way of hidden force that she could move,
I felt the mighty power of old love.”
Dante Alighieri

Dante Alighieri
“…I am left with less
than one drop of my blood that does not tremble.
I recognize the the signs of the old flame.”
Dante Alighieri, The Divine Comedy of Dante Alighieri, Volume 2: Purgatorio

Natsume Sōseki
“Why haven’t you changed?’ and she said, ‘Because the year I had this face, the month I wore these clothes, and the day I had my hair like this is my favourite time of all.’ ‘What time is that?’ I asked her. ‘The day we met twenty years ago,’ she said. I wondered to myself, ‘Then why have I aged like this?’ and she told me, ‘Because you wanted to go on changing, moving towards something more and more beautiful.”
Natsume Sōseki, Sanshirō

G.K. Chesterton
“A man reading the Dickens novel wished that it might never end. Men read a Dickens story six times because they knew it so well.”
G.K. Chesterton, Charles Dickens: A Critical Study
