Michael Crichton
“And that's how things are. A day is like a whole life. You start out doing one thing, but end up doing something else, plan to run an errand, but never get there. . . . And at the end of your life, your whole existence has the same haphazard quality, too. Your whole life has the same shape as a single day.”
Michael Crichton, Jurassic Park

Fyodor Dostoevsky
“It wasn't the New World that mattered... Columbus died almost without seeing it; and not really knowing what he had discovered. It's life that matters, nothing but life — the process of discovering, the everlasting and perpetual process, not the discovery itself, at all.”
Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Idiot

Michael Cunningham
“A writer should always feel like he's in over his head”
Michael Cunningham

Virginia Woolf
“The world wavered and quivered and threatened to burst into flames.”
Virginia Woolf, Mrs. Dalloway

Michael Cunningham
“There is just this for consolation: an hour here or there, when our lives seem, against all odds and expectations, to burst open and give us everything we've ever imagined , though everyone but children (and perhaps even they) knows these hours will inevitably be followed by others, far darker and more difficult. Still, we cherish the city, the morning, we hope, more than anything, for more. Heaven only knows why we love it so.”
Michael Cunningham, The Hours
