Robert Louis Stevenson
“O, man, if you would only take one point of the compass and let me take any other, it would be the best for both of us.”
Robert Louis Stevenson, Kidnapped

Philip Roth

Ingeborg Bachmann
“Reading is a vice which can replace all other vices or temporarily take their place in more intensely helping people live, it is a debauchery, a consuming addiction. No, I don’t take any drugs, I take books.”
Ingeborg Bachmann, Malina

Zachary Mason
“Is he the kind to talk in riddles, or love someone who would?”
Zachary Mason, Metamorphica
