and yet, no one else has ever said them like that.


i will always love him.


(quote from a short story called A Girl I Knew)

books are the new college

"He didn't tell them what he now privately believed: that Josef was one of those unfortunate boys who become escape artists not to prove the superior machinery of their bodies against outlandish contrivances and the laws of physics, but for dangerously metaphorical reasons. Such men feel imprisoned by invisible chains- walled in, sewn up in layers of batting. For them, the final auto liberation was all to foreseeable. Kornblum was, nevertheless, unable to resist offering up that final criticism to his erstwhile pupil on his performance that night. "Never worry about what you are escaping from," he said. "Reserve your anxieties for what you are escaping to."
-The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay, Michael Chabon

"We have waged war, or rather let a war be waged, against all of the animals we eat. The war is new and has a name: factory farming. Like pornography, factory farming is hard to define but easy to identify."
-Eating Animals, Jonathan Safran Foer

"There are times we demand an explanation when an explanation really isn't possible"
-Blink, Malcom Gladwell

"Truth might be stranger than fiction, but it needs a better editor."
-City of Thieves, David Benioff
