"officially obsessed with this book 😭 bc wdym there’s
- the narrator’s wife being a diva with no lines
- CASUAL 6 7 DROP ?
- “overweening lust for battle” and it’s the boys wanting to play chess all day
- mcconnor and his weirdly replenishable bank account with money to spend only on playing chess matches
- HITLER APPEARS
- thinking dr b was the aforementioned hitler for a little while
- and.. more 😭"

William Shakespeare
“If I were to kiss you then go to hell, I would. So then I can brag with the devils I saw heaven without ever entering it.”
William Shakespeare

Augustine of Hippo
“Cantare amantis est ... Singing belongs to one who loves." (s. 336, 1 – PL 38, 1472).”
St. Augustine of Hippo

F. Scott Fitzgerald
“For what it’s worth... it’s never too late, or in my case too early, to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit. Start whenever you want. You can change or stay the same. There are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you’ve never felt before. I hope you meet people who have a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of, and if you’re not, I hope you have the courage to start over again.”
F. Scott Fitzgerald

Charlotte Brontë
“I have a strange feeling with regard to you. As if I had a string somewhere under my left ribs, tightly knotted to a similar string in you. And if you were to leave I'm afraid that cord of communion would snap. And I have a notion that I'd take to bleeding inwardly. As for you, you'd forget me.”
Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre

Fyodor Dostoevsky
“You will see great sorrow, and in that sorrow you will be happy. This is my last message to you: in sorrow seek happiness. Work, work unceasingly. Remember my words, for although I shall talk with you again, not only my days but my hours are numbered.”
Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Brothers Karamazov
