“I'm glad I've been wrong enough to keep in practice. . . You can't avoid it, you've got to learn to handle it.

― Larry McMurtry, Lonesome Dove

“Don't insult me. Everyone knows a turtle is a crustacean on its mother's side.”
― Anthony Marra, A Constellation of Vital Phenomena

“Yesterday's gone on down the river and you can't get it back.”
― Larry McMurtry, Lonesome Dove

“Life: a constellation of vital phenomena—organization, irritability, movement, growth, reproduction, adaptation.”
