Elizabeth Hardwick
“Canadians, do not vomit on me!”
Elizabeth Hardwick, Sleepless Nights

Elizabeth Hardwick
“Now, my novel begins. No, now I begin my novel—and yet I cannot decide whether to call myself I or she.”
Elizabeth Hardwick, Sleepless Nights
tags: novel

James Hillman
“Why do we focus so intensely on our problems? What draws us to them? Why are they so attractive? They have the magnet power of love: somehow we desire our problems; we are in love with them much as we want to get rid of them . . . Problems sustain us -- maybe that's why they don't go away. What would a life be without them? Completely tranquilized and loveless . . . There is a secret love hiding in each problem”
James Hillman, A Blue Fire

James Baldwin
“People can't, unhappily, invent their mooring posts, their lovers and their friends, anymore than they can invent their parents. Life gives these and also takes them away and the great difficulty is to say Yes to life.”
James Baldwin, Giovanni’s Room

Graham Greene
“A story has no beginning or end: arbitrarily one chooses that moment of experience from which to look back or from which to look ahead.”
Graham Greene, The End of the Affair
