Marjane Satrapi
“It's fear that makes us lose our conscience. It's also what transforms us into cowards.”
Marjane Satrapi, The Complete Persepolis

Paul Auster
“Every life is inexplicable, I kept telling myself. No matter how many facts are told, no matter how many details are given, the essential thing resists telling. To say that so and so was born here and went there, that he did this and did that, that he married this woman and had these children, that he lived, that he died, that he left behind these books or this battle or that bridge – none of that tells us very much.”
Paul Auster, The New York Trilogy

Anne Fadiman
“It has long been my belief that everyone's library contains an Odd Shelf. On this shelf rests a small, mysterious corpus of volumes whose subject matter is completely unrelated to the rest of the library, yet which, upon closer inspection, reveals a good deal about its owner.”
Anne Fadiman, Ex Libris: Confessions of a Common Reader

Nick Hornby
“Telling me I can do anything I want is like pulling the plug out of the bath and then telling the water it can go anywhere it wants. Try it, and see what happens.”
Nick Hornby, A Long Way Down

Wallace Stegner
“There it was, there it is, the place where during the best time of our lives friendship had its home and happiness its headquarters.”
Wallace Stegner, Crossing to Safety
