Nelson Algren
“Never play cards with a man called Doc. Never eat at a place called Mom's. Never sleep with a woman whose troubles are worse than your own.”
Nelson Algren, A Walk on the Wild Side

Nelson Algren
“Yet once you've come to be part of this particular patch, you'll never love another. Like loving a woman with a broken nose, you may well find lovelier lovelies. But never a lovely so real.”
Nelson Algren, Chicago: City on the Make

William Faulkner
“Memory believes before knowing remembers. Believes longer than recollects, longer than knowing even wonders.”
William Faulkner, Light in August

Raymond Carver
“Weeks later, she said: 'The guy was about middle-aged. All his things right there in his yard. No lie. We got real pissed and danced. In the driveway. Oh, my God. Don't laugh. He played us these records. Look at this record-player. The old guy gave it to us. And all these crappy records. Will you look at this shit?'

She kept talking. She told everyone. There was more to it, and she was trying to get it talked out. After a time, she quit trying”
Carver Raymond
