“I don’t know what is more frightening: a creature on a small planet worshipping itself and its world as if infinity did not exist, or a creature who burns its fellow beings because the infinite does exist.”
Karl Ove Knausgaard, Om vinteren

Rodney Dangerfield
“f a group of guys are hanging around and one guy is doing coke, he’ll say, ‘Take a hit. You’ll feel like a new man.’ He’s right; the problem is that once you feel like a new man, that new man wants a hit so he can feel like a new man. And that goes on and on until the coke runs out, and you’re broke.”
Rodney Dangerfield, It's Not Easy Bein' Me: A Lifetime of No Respect but Plenty of Sex and Drugs

Lionel Shriver
“Obsequiousness was a quality that you bought. Fraudulence merely made the fawning seem more expensive.”
Lionel Shriver, Property: Incisive Short Stories of Power and Possession from America to Britain

Karl Ove Knausgård
“Beauty is a problem in that it imparts a kind of hope.”
Karl Ove Knausgård, Min kamp 6

Marian Engel
“The Canadian tradition was, she had found, on the whole genteel. Any evidence that an ancestor had performed any acts other than working and praying was usually destroyed. Families handily became respectable in retrospect but it was...hell on history.”
Marian Engel, Bear
