Book cover for Jane Eyre
It is far better to endure patiently a smart which nobody feels but yourself, than to commit a hasty action whose evil consequences will extend to all connected with you—and, besides, the Bible bids us return good for evil.”

Willa Cather
“The old man smiled. “I shall not die of a cold, my son. I shall die of having lived.”
Willa Cather, Death Comes for the Archbishop

Amor Towles
“those who are given something of value without having to earn it are bound to squander it.”
Amor Towles, The Lincoln Highway

Amor Towles
“Many years before, Abacus had come to the conclusion that the greatest of heroic stories have the shape of a diamond on its side. Beginning at a fine point, the life of the hero expands outward through youth as he begins to establish his strengths and fallibilities, his friendships and enmities. Proceeding into the world, he pursues exploits in grand company, accumulating honors and accolades. But at some untold moment, the two rays that define the outer limits of this widening world of hale companions and worthy adventures simultaneously turn a corner and begin to converge. The terrain our hero travels, the cast of characters he meets, the sense of purpose that has long propelled him forward all begin to narrow—to narrow toward that fixed and inexorable point that defines his fate. Take the tale of Achilles. In hopes of making her son invincible, the Nereid Thetis holds her newborn boy by the ankle and dips him into the river Styx. From that finite moment”
Amor Towles, The Lincoln Highway

Amor Towles
“Time is that which God uses to separate the idle from the industrious. For time is a mountain and upon seeing its steep incline, the idle will lie down among the lilies of the field and hope that someone passes by with a pitcher of lemonade. What the worthy endeavor requires is planning, effort, attentiveness, and the willingness to clean up.”
Amor Towles, The Lincoln Highway

Willa Cather
“Oh, the Germans classify, but the French arrange.”
Willa Cather, Death Comes for the Archbishop
