Frank Herbert
“It is impossible to live in the past, difficult to live in the present and a waste to live in the future.”
Frank Herbert, Dune

Stanley Elkin
“Because all books ARE the Book of Job -- man in the crucible like Jack in the Box....”
Stanley Elkin

Charles Bukowski
“Find what you love and let it kill you.”
Charles Bukowski

George Orwell
“Parsons was Winston’s fellow employee at the Ministry of Truth. He was a fattish but active man of paralyzing stupidity, a mass of imbecile enthusiasms--one of those completely unquestioning, devoted drudges on whom, more even than on the thought police, the stability of the Party depended.”
George Orwell

Charles Bukowski
“Writing is something that you don't know how to do. You sit down and it's something that happens, or it may not happen. So, how can you teach anybody how to write? It's beyond me, because you yourself don't even know if you're going to be able to. I'm always worried, well, you know, every time I go upstairs with my wine bottle. Sometimes I'll sit at that typewriter for fifteen minutes, you know. I don't go up there to write. The typewriter's up there. If it doesn't start moving, I say, well this could be the night that I hit the dust.”
Charles Bukowski
