Anaïs Nin
“How wrong is it for a woman to expect the man to build the world she wants, rather than to create it herself?”
Anais Nin

Flannery O'Connor
“If you don't hunt it down and kill it, it will hunt you down and kill you.”
Flannery O'Connor

Dean Martin
“I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they wake up in the morning, that's as good as they're going to feel all day.”
Dean Martin

F. Scott Fitzgerald
“First you take a drink, then the drink takes a drink, then the drink takes you.”
F. Scott Fitzgerald

Tom Robbins
“Who knows how to make love stay?

1. Tell love you are going to Junior's Deli on Flatbush Avenue in Brooklyn to pick up a cheesecake, and if loves stays, it can have half. It will stay.

2. Tell love you want a momento of it and obtain a lock of its hair. Burn the hair in a dime-store incense burner with yin/yang symbols on three sides. Face southwest. Talk fast over the burning hair in a convincingly exotic language. Remove the ashes of the burnt hair and use them to paint a moustache on your face. Find love. Tell it you are someone new. It will stay.

3. Wake love up in the middle of the night. Tell it the world is on fire. Dash to the bedroom window and pee out of it. Casually return to bed and assure love that everything is going to be all right. Fall asleep. Love will be there in the morning.”
Tom Robbins, Still Life with Woodpecker
