“The love of literature, of language, of the mystery of the mind and heart showing themselves in the minute, strange, and unexpected combinations of letters and words, in the blackest and coldest print—the love which he had hidden as if it were illicit and dangerous, he began to display, tentatively at first, and then boldly, and then proudly.”
― John Williams, Stoner

“You're the hunter, the warrior. You're stronger than anyone else here, that's your tragedy.”
― Anne Rice, The Vampire Lestat

“A book lying idle on a shelf is wasted ammunition.”
― Henry Miller, The Books in My Life

“In his forty-third year William Stoner learned what others, much younger, had learned before him: that the person one loves at first is not the person one loves at last, and that love is not an end but a process through which one person attempts to know another.”
― John Williams, Stoner
