See All“Prayer never brought in no side-meat. Takes a shoat to bring in pork.”
The Grapes of Wrath • John Steinbeck““Why do I hear a note of sadness that wrings my heart in this cry of a pure soul?"”
Seagull • Anton Chekhov“She lacks the indefinable charm of weakness. It is the feet of clay that make the gold of the image precious.”
The Picture of Dorian Gray • Oscar Wilde“Melancholy were the sounds on a winter's night.”
Jacob's Room • Virginia Woolf“A man who lies to himself, and believes his own lies, becomes unable to recognize truth, either in himself or in anyone else, and he ends up losing respect for himself and for others. When he has no respect for anyone, he can no longer love, and in him, he yields to his impulses, indulges in the lowest form of pleasure, and behaves in the end like an animal in satisfying his vices. And it all comes from lying — to others and to yourself.”
The Karamazov Brothers • Fyodor Dostoevski
