Some favorite quotations:
It could be a good day; it needs to be treated carefully.
- Michael Cunningham, The Hours.

You will find no comfort here,
In the kingdom of bang and blab.

To know only one thing well is to have a barbaric mind: civilization implies the graceful relation of all varieties of experience to a central humane system of thought.
– Robert Graves, The White Goddess
