“And therefore I looked down into the great pity of a person’s life on this earth. I don’t mean that we all end up dead, that’s not the great pity. I mean that he couldn’t tell me what he was dreaming, and I couldn’t tell him what was real.”
― Denis Johnson, Jesus’ Son

“If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.”
― Mark Twain

“You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.”
― Mae West

“The truth is that life in the end--even a long life, especially a long life--amounts to a handful of a very few things. The longer you live, the shorter the story.”
