Joyce Carol Oates
“Only where there is life can there be home.”
Joyce Carol Oates

Henry Miller
“I have made a silent compact with myself not to change a line of what I write. I am not interested in perfecting my thoughts, nor my actions.”
Henry Miller

F. Scott Fitzgerald
“I had a strong sudden instinct that I must be alone. I didn’t want to see any people at all. I had seen so many people all my life -- I was an average mixer, but more than average in a tendency to identify myself, my ideas, my destiny, with those of all classes that came in contact with. I was always saving or being saved -- in a single morning I would go through the emotions ascribable to Wellington at Waterloo. I lived in a world of inscrutable hostiles and inalienable friends and supporters.”
F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Crack-Up

Charles Bukowski
“Hey, Hank, I notice all the women around your place lately ... good looking stuff; you're doing all right."

"Sam," I say, "that's not true; I am one of God's most lonely men.”
Charles Bukowski

Jonathan Franzen
“The problem with making a virtual world of oneself is akin to the problem with projecting ourselves onto a cyberworld: there’s no end of virtual spaces in which to seek stimulation, but their very endlessness, the perpetual stimulation without satisfaction, becomes imprisoning.”
Jonathan Franzen, Farther Away
