J.D. Salinger
“I'd swear to God, if I were a piano player or an actor or something and all those dopes thought I was terrific, I'd hate it. I wouldn't even want them to clap for me. People always clap for the wrong things. If I were a piano player, I'd play it in the goddam closet.”
J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye

Dylan Moran
“I can’t get involved in all the murders you need to commit to get this shit out of your system.”
Dylan Moran

Irving Stone
“No artist is normal. Who happen to be normal cannot be an artist.”
Irving Stone, Lust for Life

J.D. Salinger
“Lawyers are alright, I guess — but it doesn't appeal to me", I said. "I mean they're alright if they go around saving innocent guys' lives all the time, and like that, but you don't do that kind of stuff if you're a lawyer. All you do is make a lot of dough and play golf and play bridge and buy cars and drink Martinis and look like a hot-shot. And besides, even if you did go around saving guys' lives and all, how would you know if you did it because you really wanted to save guys' lives, or because you did it because what you really wanted to do was be a terrific lawyer, with everybody slapping you on the back and congratulating you in court when the goddam trial was over, the reporters and everybody, the way it is in the dirty movies? How would you know you weren't being a phony? The trouble is you wouldn't.”
J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye

“Monogamy is a way of getting the versions of ourselves down to the minimum.”
Adam Phillips, Monogamy
