And at the core of the writing meat machine is something sacred, which is an unwavering band of light. At the core of each person who reads this book is a... Kurt Vonnegut
He cursed a little, not so much because he cared about the photographs as because he wanted to preserve his good spirits, his serotonin-rich mood, and to do this he needed a modicum of cooperation from the world of objects. Jonathan Franzen
