“The truth is rarely pure and never simple.”
― Oscar Wilde, The Importance of Being Earnest

“This is an interesting planet. It deserves all the attention you can give it.”
― Marilynne Robinson, Gilead

“The trouble is that we have a bad habit, encouraged by pedants and sophisticates, of considering happiness as something rather stupid. Only pain is intellectual, only evil interesting. This is the treason of the artist: a refusal to admit the banality of evil and the terrible boredom of pain. If you can’t lick ‘em, join ‘em. If it hurts, repeat it. But to praise despair is to condemn delight, to embrace violence is to lose hold of everything else. We have almost lost hold; we can no longer describe a happy man, nor make any celebration of joy.”
― Ursula K. Le Guin, The Wind's Twelve Quarters, Volume 1

“The greatest gift you can give anyone is your undivided attention...”
― Will Schwalbe, The End of Your Life Book Club
