“it's almost easier being down and alone than when you re up and no one s there to share the view with you”
Andre Dubus III, House of Sand and Fog

“For our excess we lost everything.”
Andre Dubus III, House of Sand and Fog

“And I felt more like me than I ever had, as if the years I'd lived so far had formed layers of skin and muscle over myself that others saw as me when the real one had been underneath all along, and I knew writing- even writing badly- had peeled away those layers, and I knew then that if I wanted to stay awake and alive, if I wanted to stay me, I would have to keep writing.”
Andre Dubus III, Townie: A Memoir
