Book cover for Lillian Boxfish Takes a Walk
I thought at times that poetry might be an elegant way of screaming.

Wayne Gladstone
“There has not been a piece of technology designed to save labor that has not increased labor. Word processors allow you to do what your secretary used to do for you. The Internet, BlackBerries, iPhones, yes they keep you tethered, but that's not the main problem. It's that along with increasing personal productivity, they increase the expectation of productivity. It no longer becomes a bonus to do the work of one and a half men, but the norm. And then when everyone’s working at one hundred and fifty percent capacity, they can fire a third of the workforce and still maintain output.”
Wayne Gladstone, Notes from the Internet Apocalypse

Patrick deWitt
“She wasn’t precisely sure what she was walking toward but she wouldn’t have turned around for the world.”
Patrick deWitt, Undermajordomo Minor

Simon Van Booy
“I think people would be happier if they admitted things more often. In a sense we are all prisoners of some memory, or fear, or disappointment - we are all defined by something we can’t change.”
Simon Van Booy, The Illusion of Separateness

Francesca Lia Block
“He kissed her. A kiss about apple pie a la mode with the vanilla creaminess melting in the pie heat. A kiss about chocolate, when you haven't eaten chocolate in a year. A kiss about palm trees speeding by, trailing pink clouds when you drive down the Strip sizzling with champagne. A kiss about spotlights fanning the sky and the swollen sea spilling like tears all over your legs.”
Francesca Lia Block, Weetzie Bat

Henry James
“A second chance—that’s the delusion. There never was to be but one. We work in the dark—we do what we can—we give what we have. Our doubt is our passion and our passion is our task. The rest is the madness of art.”
Henry James, The Middle Years
