Tom Robbins
“It was autumn, the springtime of death.”
Tom Robbins, Still Life with Woodpecker

John Irving
“They were involved in that awkward procedure of getting to unknow each other.”
John Irving, The World According to Garp

Tom Robbins
“But do we know how to make love stay?'
I can't even think about it. The best I can do is play it day by day.”
Tom Robbins, Still Life with Woodpecker

Pablo Neruda
“I crave your mouth, your voice, your hair.
Silent and starving, I prowl through the streets.
Bread does not nourish me, dawn disrupts me, all day
I hunt for the liquid measure of your steps.

I hunger for your sleek laugh,
your hands the color of a savage harvest,
hunger for the pale stones of your fingernails,
I want to eat your skin like a whole almond.

I want to eat the sunbeam flaring in your lovely body,
the sovereign nose of your arrogant face,
I want to eat the fleeting shade of your lashes,

and I pace around hungry, sniffing the twilight,
hunting for you, for your hot heart,
Like a puma in the barrens of Quitratue.”
Pablo Neruda

Tom Robbins
“Society had a crime problem. It hired cops to attack crime. Now society has a cop problem.”
Tom Robbins, Still Life with Woodpecker
