Thomas Bernhard
“Instead of committing suicide, people go to work.”
Thomas Bernhard, Correction

Rebecca West
“I realized that if I had said to them, "You had that young man turned out of the carriage because he had a second-class ticket," they would have nodded and said, "Yes," and if I had gone on and said, "But you yourselves have only second-class tickets," they would not have seen that the second statement had any bearing on the first; and I cannot picture to myself the mental life of people who cannot perceive that connexion.”
Rebecca West, Black Lamb and Grey Falcon

Virginia Woolf
“I am reading six books at once, the only way of reading; since, as you will agree, one book is only a single unaccompanied note, and to get the full sound, one needs ten others at the same time.”
Virginia Woolf, The Letters of Virginia Woolf: Volume Three, 1923-1928

Shūsaku Endō
“The important thing in this life is to link your sadness to the sadness of others.”
Shusaku Endo, The Girl I Left Behind

Patrick Leigh Fermor
“All horsepower corrupts.”
Patrick Leigh Fermor, A Time of Gifts
