Lin’s Quotes

“Maybe we really are made of the same clay, maybe we really are condemned, blameless, to the same, identical mediocrity.”
― Elena Ferrante, The Story of a New Name

“I took you out to dinner to warn you of charm. I warned you expressly and in great details of the Flyte family. Charm is the great English blight. It does not exist outside these damp islands. It spots and kills anything it touches. It kills love; it kills art; I greatly fear, Charles, it has killed you. Anthony Blanche to Charles”
― Evelyn Waugh, Brideshead Revisited: The Sacred and Profane Memories of Captain Charles Ryder
