Jonathan Franzen

Robertson Davies
“Lots of people do," said Cobbler, "but don’t delude yourself. You’re not the suicidal type."

― Robertson Davies, Leaven of Malice

― Robertson Davies, Leaven of Malice

Robertson Davies
“What would you do if you were me?" said Solly.

"What would I do in your place?"

"No, no; you’d do something fantastic and get farther into the soup. I want to know what you would do if you were intelligent but prudent. What would you do if you were me?”
― Robertson Davies, Leaven of Malice

Jonathan Franzen
“His expression was like a perspectival regression toward a vanishing point of misery.”
― Jonathan Franzen, The Corrections
