J.D. Salinger
“You're lucky if you get time to sneeze in this goddam phenomenal world.”
J.D. Salinger, Franny and Zooey

Francesca Lia Block
“This was not a faerie tale. This was not the movies. This was life. It hurt more. It was excruciating. It was excruciatingly beautiful.”
Francesca Lia Block

Tim O'Brien
“you find yourself studying the fine colors on the river, you feel wonder and awe at the setting of the sun, and you are filled with a hard, aching love for how the world could be and always should be, but now is not.”
Tim O'Brien

J.D. Salinger
“In the first place, you’re way off when you start railing at things and people instead of at yourself. ”
J.D. Salinger, Franny and Zooey

Jeffrey Eugenides
“They had killed themselves over our dying forests, over manatees maimed by propellers as they surfaced to drink from garden hoses; they had killed themselves at the sight of used tires stacked higher than the pyramids; they had killed themselves over the failure to find a love none of us could ever be. In the end, the tortures tearing the Lisbon girls pointed to a simple reasoned refusal to accept the world as it was handed down to them, so full of flaws.”
Jeffrey Eugenides, The Virgin Suicides
