“The house in which the fourteen sisters of Emilio Montez O'brien lived, radiated femininity.”
― Oscar Hijuelos, The 14 Sisters of Emilio Montez O'Brien

“Glorious life ending. There must have been a moment when his son had gasped for air, the last time, as Jesus must. But as Jesus had risen, he wanted his son to rise up, organs and spirit and mind intact, and everything to be as it had been not so long ago.”
― Oscar Hijuelos, Mr. Ives' Christmas

“Oh yes!...The sweet summons of God to man. That's when He calls you up to His arms. And it's the most beautiful thing, a rebirth, a new life. But, just the same I'm in no rush to find out.”
