Book cover for Toil & Trouble: A Memoir
I’m pleased not to be living in Ossining. I thought that the downtown area was awful, with all the charm of a solitary brick and with insanely high taxes. All for the privilege of living near a prison that doesn’t even have their electric ...more

Amor Towles
“If we only fell in love with people who were perfect for us...then there wouldn't be so much fuss about love in the first place.”
Amor Towles, Rules of Civility

Amor Towles, A Gentleman in Moscow

“It is a lovely oddity of human nature that a person is more inclined to interrupt two people in conversation than one person alone with a book.”
Amor Towles, Rules of Civility

Robert Dugoni
“There comes a day in every man's life when he stops looking forward and starts looking back.
Because of my father's circumstances, I had a sad commentary on life, but I now understood that he was offering me his own gift, one that only time can provide. He was offering me the gift of perspective. My father was telling me that while we tend to remember the dramatic incidents that change history---Armstrong's walk on the moon, Nixon's resignation, and the Loma Prieta earthquake---we live for the quiet, intimate moments that mark not our calendars, but our hearts: The day we marry. The days our children are born. Their first step. Their first word. Their first day of school. And when our children grow, we remember those moments with a touch of melancholy: the day they get their driver's license, the day we drive them to college, the day they marry, and the day they have their children.
And the cycle begins anew.
We realize it is in those quiet moments that each of us has the ability to make our lives extraordinary.”
Robert Dugoni, The Extraordinary Life of Sam Hell

Fredrik Backman
“Men are what they are because of what they do. Not what they say.”
Fredrik Backman, A Man Called Ove
