Jonathan Safran Foer
“While it is always possible to wake a person who's sleeping, no amount of noise will wake a person who is pretending to be asleep.”
Jonathan Safran Foer, Eating Animals

Annie Dillard
“I am a frayed and nibbled survivor in a fallen world, and I am getting along. I am aging and eaten and have done my share of eating too. I am not washed and beautiful, in control of a shining world in which everything fits, but instead am wondering awed about on a splintered wreck I've come to care for, whose gnawed trees breathe a delicate air, whose bloodied and scarred creatures are my dearest companions, and whose beauty bats and shines not in its imperfections but overwhelmingly in spite of them...”
Annie Dillard, Pilgrim at Tinker Creek

Annie Dillard
“The answer must be, I think, that beauty and grace are performed whether or not we will or sense them. The least we can do is try to be there.”
Annie Dillard, Pilgrim at Tinker Creek

Ken Kesey
“The best of all possible cages.' Ben stepped back to regard the job with a sad smile. 'What more can one ask?”
Ken Kesey, Sometimes a Great Notion

Annie Dillard
“We have not yet encountered any god who is as merciful as a man who flicks a beetle over on its feet.”
Annie Dillard, Pilgrim at Tinker Creek
