Eugene O'Neill
“There is no present or future-only the past, happening over and over again-now.”
Eugene O'Neill, A Moon for the Misbegotten

Cormac McCarthy
“Somewhere out there is a true and living prophet of destruction and I dont want to confront him. I know he's real. I have seen his work. I walked in front of those eyes once. I wont do it again. I wont push my chips forward and stand up and go out to meet him. It aint just bein older. I wish that it was. I cant say that it's even what you are willin to do. Because I always knew that you had to be willin to die to even do this job. That was always true. Not to sound glorious about it or nothin but you do. If you aint they'll know it. They'll see it in a heartbeat. I think it is more like what you are willin to become. And I think a man would have to put his soul at hazard. And I wont do that.”
Cormac McCarthy, No Country for Old Men

George R.R. Martin
“... a mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone, if it is to keep its edge.”
George R.R. Martin, A Game of Thrones

Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“I concluded that my mind was so ordinary, which is to say empty, that I could never be anything but a reasonably good camera.”
Kurt Vonnegut, Bluebeard

Henry David Thoreau
“No man ever stood the lower in my estimation for having a patch in his clothes: yet I am sure that there is greater anxiety, commonly, to have fashionable, or at least clean and unpatched clothes, than to have a sound conscience.”
Henry David Thoreau, Walden or, Life in the Woods
