Colson Whitehead
“Q: Why write about slavery? Haven’t we had enough stories about slavery? Why do we need another one?

A: I could have written about upper middle class white people who feel sad sometimes, but there’s a lot of competition.”
Colson Whitehead

Laurent Binet
“What would you do if you ruled the world?” The gigolo replied that he would abolish all laws. Barthes said: “Even grammar?”
Laurent Binet, The Seventh Function of Language

“The point is to wake up, not to earn a Ph.D. In waking up.”
Jed McKenna

Alan Moore

Alan Moore

James Joyce, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man
