Marguerite Yourcenar
“Attianus had been right in his conjectures: the virgin gold of respect would be too soft without some alloy of fear.”
Marguerite Yourcenar, Memoirs of Hadrian

Annie Proulx
“No, they didn’t have any money, the sea was dangerous and men were lost, but it was a satisfying life in a way people today do not understand. There was a joinery of lives all worked together, smooth in places, or lumpy, but joined. The work and the living you did was the same things, not separated out like today.”
Annie Proulx, The Shipping News

Marguerite Yourcenar
“My purpose was simply to diminish that mass of contradictions and abuses which eventually turn legal procedure into a wilderness where decent people hardly dare venture, and where bandits abound.”
Marguerite Yourcenar, Memoirs of Hadrian

“We all go through a challenge in life because without a challenge there’d be no reason to keep going toward your future.”
Mark Twain and M J Elliott, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

Marguerite Yourcenar
“I knew that good like bad becomes a routine, that the temporary tends to endure, that what is external permeates to the inside, and that the mask, given time, comes to be the face itself.”
Marguerite Yourcenar, Memoirs of Hadrian
