Erica Jong
“Though my friends envied me because I always seemed so cheerful and confident, I was secretly terrified of practically everything.”
Erica Jong, Fear of Flying
tags: fear

Junot Díaz
“Nobody likes children, your mother assured you. That doesn't mean you don't have them.”
Junot Díaz, This Is How You Lose Her

Erica Jong
“I tried to keep myself away from him by using con words like "fidelity" and "adultery", by telling myself that he would interfere with my work, that I had him I'd be too happy to write. I tried to tell myself I was hurting Bennett, hurting myself, making a spectacle of myself. I was. But nothing helped. I was possessed. The minute he walked into a room and smiled at me, I was a goner.”
Erica Jong, Fear of Flying

William Faulkner
“There was something about his wolflike independence and even courage when the advantage was at least neutral which impressed strangers, as if they got from his latent ravening ferocity not so much a sense of dependability as a feeling that his ferocious conviction in the rightness of his own actions would be of advantage to all whose interest lay with his.”
William Faulkner, Barn Burning
