A novel is what you dream in your night sleep. A novel is not waking thoughts although it is written and thought with waking thoughts. But really a novel goes as dreams go in sleeping at night and some dreams are like anything and some dreams are like something and some dreams change and some dreams are quiet and some dreams are not. And some dreams are just what any one would do only a little different always just a little different and that is what a novel is. Gertrude Stein

And so I try to find beauty even in the smallest moments, because beauty is something that can grow if you let it. Doug Coupland

There is love in me the likes of which you've never seen. There is rage in me the likes of which should never escape. If I am not satisfied int he one, I will indulge the other. Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
Live is like falconry," he said. "Don't you think that's true, Cleveland?"Never say love is like anything." said Cleveland. "It isn't. Michael Chabon

I want - I want somehow to get away with you into a world where words like that -categories like that- won't exist. Where we shall be simply two human beings who love each other, who are the whole of life to each other; and nothing else on earth will matter. Edith Wharton
