Novelists are not equipped to make a movie, in my opinion. They make their own movie when they write: they're casting, they're dressing the scene, they're working out where the energy of the scene is coming from and they're also relying tremendously on the creative imagination of the reader.

John le Carre

The only way of knowing a person is to love them without hope.

Walter Benjamin

A wedding is just like a funeral except that you get to smell your own flowers.
