Ian McEwan
“Finally he spoke the three simple words that no amount of bad art or bad faith can every quite cheapen. She repeated them, with exactly the same slight emphasis on the second word, as though she were the one to say them first. He had no religious belief, but it was impossible not to think of an invisible presence or witness in the room, and that these words spoken aloud were like signatures on an unseen contract.”
Ian McEwan, Atonement

“How guilt refined the methods of self-torture, threading the beads of detail into an eternal loop, a rosary to be fingered for a lifetime.”
Ian McEwan, Atonement

Ian McEwan
“How can a novelist achieve atonement when, with her absolute power of deciding outcomes, she is also God? There is no one, no entity or higher form that she can appeal to, or be reconciled with, or that can forgive her. There is nothing outside her. In her imagination she has set the limits and the terms. No atonement for God, or novelists, even if they are atheists. It was always an impossible task, and that was precisely the point. The attempt was all.”
Ian McEwan, Atonement

“Own everything that happened to you. Tell your stories. If people wanted you to write warmly about them, they should have behaved better.”
T.W. Neal, Freckled: A Memoir of Growing Up Wild in Hawaii

William Shakespeare
“Bid me run, and I will strive with things impossible.”
William Shakespeare, Julius Caesar
