Allan Gurganus
“Till the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, most American men wore hats to work. What happened? Did our guys—suddenly scouting overhead for worse Sunday raids—come to fear their hatbrims' interference?”
Allan Gurganus, Prize Stories 2000: The O. Henry Awards

Melissa Pritchard
“She had read enough about teenagers to understand you couldn't confront them directly. You couldn't even agree with them. The best strategy was to feign indifference to whatever wrong direction they were headed in, then plop in little facts, like Alka-Seltzers, round innocuous comments, let those sink in, take slow, antidotal effect . . .”
Melissa Pritchard, Disappearing Ingenue

“I had come out of the city, where story-telling is a manufactured science, to the country where story-telling is a by-product of life.”
Dana Burnet, The Best American Short Stories Of 1916: And The Yearbook Of The American Short Story

Elizabeth Tallent
“People open bookstores because they want their souls back.
(from "Two Women" published in Do Me: Tales of Sex & Love from Tin House)”
Elizabeth Tallent

Joshua Isard
“Organizing the books was a fun afternoon. We decided to put the thick hardback books, mostly intro. to philosophy textbooks and Norton literature anthologies, on the top shelves where they looked good but stayed out of reach since there's no reason for opening them ever again. Then we went by genre: mysteries, cozies, modernists, mountains, sci-fi, beloved childhood volumes, books we bought abroad, books required in school we couldn't sell back, books bought for us we'll read soon, books bought for us we have no intention of reading, books we want to read but are too long for a commitment with our current schedules...We're not really done with this organization, and I doubt we ever will be, but that's one great part about it.”
Joshua Isard, Conquistador of the Useless
