QUOTES

"For our excess we lost everything"

--Andre Dubus III [House of Sand and Fog]

"See, the poor dream all their lives of getting enough to eat and looking like the rich. And what do the rich dream of? Losing weight and looking like the poor."

-Aravind Adiga [The White Tiger]

"Talent must be a fanatical mistress. She's beautiful; when you're with her, people watch you, they notice. But she bangs on your door at odd hours, and she disappears for long stretches and she has no patience for the rest of your existence: your wife, your children, your friends. She is the most thrilling evening of your week, but some day she will leave you for good. One night, after she's been gone for years, you will see her on the arm of a younger man, and she will pretend not to recognize you."

--David Benioff [City of Thieves]

"She never answers during the day," Max explained. "She lets her machine pick up."

"People like you are the reason other people get answering machines to begin with," Miles told him. "In fact, people like you are driving a lot of modern technology."

--Richard Russo [Empire Falls]
