Herman Melville
“For small erections may be finished by their first architects; grand ones, true ones, ever leave the copestone to posterity. God keep me from ever completing anything. This whole book is but a draught—nay, but the draught of a draught. Oh, Time, Strength, Cash, and Patience!”
Herman Melville, Moby-Dick or, The Whale

Flannery O'Connor
“The black sky was underpinned with long silver streaks that looked like scaffolding and depth on depth behind it were thousands of stars that all seemed to be moving very slowly as if they were about some vast construction work that involved the whole universe and would take all time to complete. No one was paying attention to the sky.”
Flannery O'Connor, Wise Blood / The Violent Bear It Away / The Complete Stories

Katherine Dunn
“When your mama was the geek, my dreamlets," Papa would say, "she made the nipping off of noggins such a crystal mystery that the hens themselves yearned toward her, waltzing around her, hypnotized with longing.”
Katherine Dunn, Geek Love

Mervyn Peake
“For death is life. It is only living that is lifeless.”
Mervyn Peake, Titus Groan

Arthur Schopenhauer
“The business of the novelist is not to relate great events, but to make small ones interesting.”
Arthur Schopenhauer, The Works of Schopenhauer: The Wisdom of Life and Other Essays
