Cormac McCarthy
“Grief is the stuff of life. A life without grief is no life at all. But regret is a prison. Some part of you which you deeply value lies forever impaled at a crossroads you can no longer find and never forget.”
Cormac McCarthy, The Passenger

Ursula K. Le Guin
“The idea is like grass. It craves light, likes crowds, thrives on crossbreeding, grows better for being stepped on.”
Ursula K. Le Guin, The Dispossessed: An Ambiguous Utopia

Ursula K. Le Guin
“So, looking back on the last four years, Shevek saw them not as wasted, but as part of the edifice that he and Takver were building with their lives. The thing about working with time, instead of against it, he thought, is that it is not wasted. Even pain counts.”
Ursula K. Le Guin, The Dispossessed

William T. Vollmann
“Most literary critics agree that fiction cannot be reduced to mere falsehood. Well-crafted protagonists come to life, pornography causes orgasms, and the pretense that life is what we want it to be may conceivably bring about the desired condition. Hence religious parables, socialist realism, Nazi propaganda. And if this story likewise crawls with reactionary supernaturalism, that might be because its author longs to see letters scuttling across ceilings, cautiously beginning to reify themselves into angels. For if they could only do that, then why not us?”
William T. Vollmann, Europe Central

Cormac McCarthy
“But I will tell you Squire that having read even a few dozen books in common is a force more binding than blood.”
Cormac McCarthy, The Passenger
