"Reminds me of The Catcher In The Rye, except more crass and edgy, seemingly to me just for the sake of it." Jan 09, 2025 05:04AM

Jon Krakauer
“Happiness [is] only real when shared”
Jon Krakauer, Into the Wild

John Ajvide Lindqvist
“Closed his mouth. Then pressed a kiss on Oskar's lips. For a few seconds Oskar saw through Eli's eyes. And what he saw was... himself. Only much better, more handsome, stronger than what he thought of himself. Seen with love.”
John Ajvide Lindqvist, Let the Right One In

George Orwell
“All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.”
George Orwell, Animal Farm

Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
“Learn from me, if not by my precepts, at least by my example, how dangerous is the acquirement of knowledge, and how much happier that man is who believes his native town to be his world, than he who aspires to become greater than his nature will allow.”
Mary Shelley, Frankenstein

Herman Melville
“To enjoy bodily warmth, some small part of you must be cold, for there is no quality in this world that is not what it is merely by contrast. Nothing exists in itself. If you flatter yourself that you are all over comfortable, and have been so a long time, then you cannot be said to be comfortable any more. For this reason a sleeping apartment should never be furnished with a fire, which is one of the luxurious discomforts of the rich. For the height of this sort of deliciousness is to have nothing but the blanket between you and your snugness and the cold of the outer air. Then there you lie like the one warm spark in the heart of an arctic crystal.”
Herman Melville, Moby-Dick or, The Whale
