James Joyce quote: "Life is too short to read a bad book."
Life is too short to read a bad book. James Joyce

James Joyce
James Joyce quote: "I am, a stride at a time. A very short space of time through..."
I am, a stride at a time. A very short space of time through very short time of space. James Joyce

Our shouts echoed in the silent street. James Joyce

Mr. Duffy lived a short distance from his body. James Joyce
