David Leavitt
“Novels are forged in passion, demand fidelity and commitment, often drive you to boredom or rage, sleep with you at night. They are the long haul. They are marriage. Stories, on the other hand, you can lose yourself in for a few weeks and then wrap up, or grow tired of and abandon and (maybe) return to later. They can cuddle you sweetly, or make you get on your knees and beg.”
David Leavitt, Collected Stories

William Blake
“In the universe, there are things that are known, and things that are unknown, and in between, there are doors.”
William Blake

Raymond Carver
“Woke up this morning with a terrific urge to lie in bed all day and read.”
Raymond Carver
