Jaron Lanier
“A real friendship ought to introduce each person to unexpected weirdness in the other.”
Jaron Lanier, You Are Not a Gadget

Bill Hicks
“I was in Nashville, Tennessee last year. After the show I went to a Waffle House. I'm not proud of it, I was hungry. And I'm alone, I'm eating and I'm reading a book, right? Waitress walks over to me: 'Hey, whatcha readin' for?' Isn't that the weirdest fuckin' question you've ever heard? Not what am I reading, but what am I reading FOR? Well, goddamnit, ya stumped me! Why do I read? Well . . . hmmm...I dunno...I guess I read for a lot of reasons and the main one is so I don't end up being a fuckin' waffle waitress.”
Bill Hicks

Edmund Wilson
“There is nothing more demoralizing than a small but adequate income.”
Edmund Wilson, Memoirs of Hecate County

John Jeremiah Sullivan
“We live in such constant nearness to the abyss of past time that the moment is endlessly sucked into.”
John Jeremiah Sullivan, Pulphead

Mark Twain
“I have never let my schooling interfere with my education.”
Mark Twain
