Oscar Wilde
“Ah, my dear Basil, that is exactly why I can feel it. Those who are faithful know only the trivial side of love: it is the faithless who know love’s tragedies.”
Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray

Joshua Ferris
“Others just liked having their useless shit around in the place where they spent most of their time.”
Joshua Ferris

George Orwell
“The work of teaching and organising the others fell naturally upon the pigs, who were generally recognised as being the cleverest of the animals.”
George Orwell, CliffsNotes on Orwell's Animal Farm

Jesse Q. Sutanto
“She will fake it even better than a mediocre man interviewing for a job he’s not qualified for.”
Jesse Q. Sutanto, Vera Wong's Unsolicited Advice for Murderers

Joshua Ferris
“SOME PEOPLE WOULD NEVER FORGET certain people, a few people would remember everyone, and most of us would mostly be forgotten. Sometimes it was for the best. Larry Novotny wanted to be forgotten for his dalliance with Amber Ludwig. Tom Mota wanted to be forgotten for that incident involving the paintballs. But did anybody want to be forgotten about completely? We had dedicated years to that place, we labored under the notion we were making names for ourselves, we had to believe in our hearts that each one of us was memorable. And yet who wanted to be remembered for their poor taste or bad breath? Still, better to be remembered for those things than forgotten for your perfect parboiled blandness.”
Joshua Ferris, Then We Came to the End
