Emily St. John Mandel
“She moved over the surface of life the way figure skaters move, fast and choreographed, but she never broke through the ice, she never pierced the surface and descended into those awful beautiful waters, she was never submerged and she never learned to swim in those currents, these currents: all the shadows and light and splendorous horrors that make up the riptides of life on earth.”
Emily St. John Mandel, Last Night in Montreal

Anne Carson
“As Sokrates tells it, your story begins the moment Eros enters you. That incursion is the biggest risk of your life. How you handle it is an index of the quality, wisdom, and decorum of the things inside you. As you handle it you come into contact with what is inside you, in a sudden and startling way. You perceive what you are, what you lack, what you could be.”
Anne Carson, Eros the Bittersweet

Anne Carson
“You could take the entirety of the common sense of humans and put it in the palm of your hand and still have room for your dick.”
Anne Carson, Red Doc>

Dorothy Parker
“She realizes she doesn't know as much as God but feels she knows as much as God knew when he was her age.”
Dorothy Parker

Alasdair Gray
“People in Scotland have a queer idea of the arts. They think you can be an artist in your spare time, though nobody expects you to be a spare-time dustman, engineer, lawyer or brain surgeon.”
Alasdair Gray, Lanark
