One could hear the... Albert Camus
Strange how one person can saturate a room with vitality, with excitement. Then there are others, and this dame was one of them, who can drain off energy and joy, can suck pleasure dry and get no sustenance from it. Such people spread a grayness in the air about them. John Steinbeck

Khalil Gibran quote: "THEN said a rich man, Speak to us of Giving."
THEN said a rich man, Speak to us of Giving. Khalil Gibran
Maybe he was as mad as he said he was, but she could see only a species of miserable fright. Suddenly, like the thud of a boxing glove on her mouth, she saw how close to the edge of everything he was. The agency was tottering, that was bad enough, and now, on top of that, like a grisly dessert following a putrid main course, his marriage was tottering too. She felt a rush of warmth for him, for this man she had sometimes hated and had, for the last three hours at least, feared. A kind of... Stephen King

I wish I’d been smart enough to understand that when I was an adolescent. David Foster Wallace
