The Epicure's Lament Quotes

“…you’re doing the same thing I am, only more slowly, and less honestly. You drive a car; you use plastic products; you do whatever the hell you do knowing full well that it’s contributing to the end of everyone, and a lot of other animals besides. So don’t get all more-life-affirming-than-thou with me, missy, you’re on your way out too. In a way, you could see me as he canary down a mine shaft, or maybe synecdoche, the small part representing the whole.”
― Kate Christensen, The Epicure's Lament

“She was fierce and opaque, and not breakable.”
― Kate Christensen, The Epicure's Lament
