Brian M. Boyce
“I wonder what God must have thought then / When He saw the work of Cain's hand / That the first baby born on the planet / Grew up to kill the third man.”
Brian M. Boyce, Genesis Beginning

Michael Lee West
“I was tired of well-meaning folks, telling me it was time I got over being heartbroke. When somebody tells you that, a little bell ought to ding in your mind. Some people don't know grief from garlic grits. There's somethings a body ain't meant to get over. No I'm not suggesting you wallow in sorrow, or let it drag on; no I am just saying it never really goes away. (A death in the family) is like having a pile of rocks dumped in your front yard. Every day you walk out and see them rocks. They're sharp and ugly and heavy. You just learn to live around them the best way you can. Some people plant moss or ivy; some leave it be. Some folks take the rocks one by one, and build a wall.”
Michael Lee West, American Pie

Ring Lardner
“For inst. when the telephone rings now days I am scared to death that its somebody asking us to go somewheres for dinner or somewheres. Six yrs. ago I was afraid it wasn't. At 29 home was like they say on the vaudeville stage, a place to go when all the other joints was closed up. At 35 its a place you never leave without a loud squawk.”
Ring Lardner, Symptoms of Being 35

Matsuo Bashō
“There is nothing you can see that is not a flower; there is nothing you can think that is not the moon.”
Matsuo Basho

Erich Maria Remarque
“It is too dangerous for me to put these things into words. I am afraid they might then become gigantic and I be no longer able to master them.”
Erich Maria Remarque, All Quiet on the Western Front
