W.G. Sebald
“Tiny details imperceptible to us decide everything!”
Winfried Georg Sebald, Vertigo

Charles Frazier
“The man had asked, Why do you want sheep? The wool? Meat? Monroe's answer had been, For the atmosphere.”
Charles Frazier, Cold Mountain

Julian Barnes
“It strikes me that this may be one of the differences between youth and age: when we are young, we invent different futures for ourselves; when we are old, we invent different pasts for others.”
Julian Barnes, The Sense of an Ending

Gary Snyder
“When men see Han-shan
They all say he's crazy
And not much to look at -
Dressed in rags and hides.
They don't get what I say
And I don't talk their language.
All I can say to those I meet:
"Try and make it to Cold Mountain.”
Gary Snyder, Riprap and Cold Mountain Poems

Julian Barnes
“That's one of the central problems of history, isn't it, sir? The question of subjective versus objective interpretation, the fact that we need to know the history of the historian in order to understand the version that is being put in front of us.”
Julian Barnes, The Sense of an Ending
