Jennifer Egan
“Structural dissatisfaction: Returning to circumstances that once pleased you, after having experienced a more thrilling or opulent way of life, and finding that you can no longer tolerate them.”
Jennifer Egan, A Visit from the Goon Squad

“It's never too late to have a happy childhood.”
Tom Robbins, Still Life with Woodpecker

Haven Kimmel
“They did a lot of cleaning in their house, which I considered to be a sign of immoral parenting. The job of parents, as I saw it, was to watch television and step into a child's life only when absolutely necessary, like in the event of a tornado or a potential kidnapping.”

Tom Robbins
“We waste time looking for the perfect lover, instead of creating the perfect love.”
Tom Robbins

Haven Kimmel
“I respect every way in which you are a troublemaker, now get up and do what your mother says.”
Haven Kimmel, A Girl Named Zippy: Growing Up Small In Mooreland, Indiana
