Elizabeth Gilbert
“Dear me, how I love a library.”
― Elizabeth Gilbert

George Orwell
“War is peace.
Freedom is slavery.
Ignorance is strength.”
― George Orwell, 1984

Chris Crutcher
“Love, in the universal sense, is unconditional acceptance. In the individual sense, the one-on-one sense, try this: we can say we love each other if my life is better because you're in it and your life is better because I'm in it. The intensity of the love is weighted by how much better.”
― Chris Crutcher, Deadline

John Irving
“All his life he would hold this moment as exemplary of what love was. It was not wanting anything more, nor was it expecting people to exceed what they had just accomplished; it was simply feeling so complete.”
― John Irving, A Widow for One Year

Oscar Wilde
“We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.”
― Oscar Wilde, Lady Windermere's Fan
