J.D. Salinger
“Give me an honest con man any day.”
J.D. Salinger, Franny and Zooey

David Sedaris
“Real love amounts to withholding the truth, even when you're offered the perfect opportunity to hurt someone's feelings”
David Sedaris, Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim

Harper Lee
“I think I'll be a clown when I get grown,' said Dill.
Jem and I stopped in our tracks.
Yes sir, a clown,' he said. 'There ain't one thing in this world I can do about folks except laugh, so I'm gonna join the circus and laugh my head off.'
You got it backwards, Dill,' said Jem. 'Clowns are sad, it's folks that laugh at them.'
Well I'm gonna be a new kind of clown. I'm gonna stand in the middle of the ring and laugh at the folks.”
Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird

Don't ever tell anybody anything. If you do, you start missing everybody.
“Don't ever tell anybody anything. If you do, you start missing everybody.”
J. D. Salinger

David Sedaris
“This left me alone to solve the coffee problem - a sort of catch-22, as in order to think straight I need caffeine, and in order to make that happen I need to think straight.”
David Sedaris, When You Are Engulfed in Flames
