Maria Semple
“People like you must create. If you don't create, Bernadette, you will become a menace to society.”
Maria Semple, Where'd You Go, Bernadette

Stephen  King
“Writing is seduction. Good talk is part of seduction. If not so, why do so many couples who start the evening at dinner wind up in bed?”
Stephen King, On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft

Isak Dinesen
“The cure for anything is salt water: sweat, tears or the sea.”
Isak Dinesen, Seven Gothic Tales

René Daumal
“You cannot stay on the summit forever; you have to come down again. So why bother in the first place? Just this: What is above knows what is below, but what is below does not know what is above. One climbs, one sees. One descends, one sees no longer, but one has seen. There is an art of conducting oneself in the lower regions by the memory of what one saw higher up. When one can no longer see, one can at least still know.”
Rene Daumal

Jane Austen
“I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of any thing than of a book! -- When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.”
Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice
