“Cynicism is what passes for insight among the mediocre.”
― Joe Klein, Primary Colors

“I think insomnia is a sign that a person is interesting.”
― Avery Sawyer, Notes to Self

“Insomniacs should not be forced to exist in a realm with reflective glass. From the first look I’m boxed in a prism, rainbows charming the other dark-circled self into sharing my prison. One eye turns on the other, each accusing the other of being responsible for an appearance oddly elfin, before exiting head and bouncing like lottery balls through the mirror walls and then drifting up and out the open and unguarded Well of the Wyrd. There, everyone with mirrors and mushrooms is waiting for me, faded and dissolved into giggles.”
― Amanda Sledz, Psychopomp Volume One: Cracked Plate

“Ending a novel is almost like putting a child to sleep—it can't be done abruptly.”
― Colm Tóibín
