“It is is better to know one book intimately than a hundred superficially.”
― Donna Tartt, The Secret History

“There is always a mysterious conflict in every artist; if life treats him roughly he longs for peace and calm, but if he comes into safe harbour he longs to be back in the turmoil.”
― Stefan Zweig, The World of Yesterday

“When you spring to an idea, and decide it is truth, without evidence, you blind yourself to other possibilities.”

“Perhaps I am a man of exceptional moods. I do not know how far my
experience is common. At times I suffer from the strangest sense of
detachment from myself and the world about me; I seem to watch it all
from the outside, from somewhere inconceivably remote, out of time,
out of space, out of the stress and tragedy of it all. This feeling
was very strong upon me that night. Here was another side to my
dream.”
― H.G. Wells, The War of the Worlds
