John Irving
“When someone you love dies, and you're not expecting it, you don't lose her all at once; you lose her in pieces over a long time—the way the mail stops coming, and her scent fades from the pillows and even from the clothes in her closet and drawers. Gradually, you accumulate the parts of her that are gone. Just when the day comes—when there's a particular missing part that overwhelms you with the feeling that she's gone, forever—there comes another day, and another specifically missing part.”
John Irving, A Prayer for Owen Meany

Stephen  King
“If you don't have time to read, you don't have the time (or the tools) to write. Simple as that.”
Stephen King

John Irving
“I will tell you what is my overriding perception of the last twenty years: that we are a civilization careening toward a succession of anticlimaxes – toward an infinity of unsatisfying, and disagreeable endings. ”
John Irving, A Prayer for Owen Meany

Marilynne Robinson
“It is a good thing to know what it is to be poor, and a better thing if you can do it in company.”
Marilynne Robinson, Gilead

John Irving
“The only way you get Americans to notice anything is to tax them or draft them or kill them.”
John Irving, A Prayer for Owen Meany
