Chuck Palahniuk
“A motion picture, or music, or television, they have to maintain a certain decorum in order to be broadcast to a vast audience. Other forms of mass media cost too much to produce a risk reaching only a limited audience. Only one person. But a book. . . . A book is cheap to print and bind. A book is as private and consensual as sex. A book takes time and effort to consume - something that gives a reader every chance to walk away. Actually, so few people make the effort to read that it's difficult to call books a "mass medium." No one really gives a damn about books. No one has bothered to ban a book in decades.”
Chuck Palahniuk, Haunted

Charles Bukowski
“For each Joan of Arc there is a Hitler perched at the other end of the teeter-totter.”
Charles Bukowski, Factotum

Gabriel García Márquez
“he dared to explore her withered neck w/his fingertips…her hips w/their decaying bones, her thighs with their aging veins.”
Gabriel Garcí­a Márquez, Love in the Time of Cholera

Anaïs Nin
“The leaf fall of his words, the stained glass hues of his moods, the rust in his voice, the smoke in his mouth, his breath on my vision like human breath blinding a mirror.”
Anaïs Nin, House of Incest

Hunter S. Thompson
“I don't mean to say that I'm about to state my credo here on this page, but merely to affirm, sincerely for the first time in my life, my belief in man as an individual and independent entity. Certainly not independence in the everyday sense of the word, but pertaining to a freedom and mobility of thought that few people are able - or even have the courage - to achieve.”
Hunter S. Thompson, Kingdom of Fear: Loathsome Secrets of a Star-crossed Child in the Final Days of the American Century
