Chloé Cooper Jones
“so tenderhearted, so sensitive to life—his same receptors that were open to beauty were as open to suffering.”
Chloé Cooper Jones, Easy Beauty

Chloé Cooper Jones
“throughout all this, I was acutely aware of how quickly the experience of beauty dissipates and is replaced by boredom and the dullness of obligation.”
Chloé Cooper Jones, Easy Beauty

Chloé Cooper Jones
“You could have made me come home,” I say. “No, I can only try to be the person you want to come home to.”
Chloé Cooper Jones, Easy Beauty

Renata Adler
“…the particular consequence of his moral vanity was that when he did people an injury, he never forgave them. Never again.”
Renata Adler

John  Williams
“In his extreme youth Stoner had thought of love as an absolute state of being to which, if one were lucky, one might find access; in his maturity he had decided it was the heaven of a false religion, toward which one ought to gaze with an amused disbelief, a gently familiar contempt, and an embarrassed nostalgia. Now in his middle age he began to know that it was neither a state of grace nor an illusion; he saw it as a human act of becoming, a condition that was invented and modified moment by moment and day by day, by the will and the intelligence and the heart.”
John Williams, Stoner
