Status Updates From Leviathan

"He had caused a disturbance somewhere deep inside the earth, and the waves were now beginning to rise to the surface, touching every part of the ground at once.

Something had happened, something new was in the air, and there were days that spring when I walked through the city and almost imagined that I could feel the sidewalks vibrating under my feet."

Auster, Paul. Leviathan (p. 245).

"It became his private religion, his form of daily prayer. Scan the newspapers and hold your breath. Make sure they weren’t after you. Make sure you could go on living another twenty-four hours."

Auster, Paul. Leviathan (p. 227). Penguin Publishing Group. Kindle Edition.
