“Rueful, bittersweet, funny, written with tenderness and bite, Merrill Feitell's stories, like so many classic short stories, are made from the plain and painful stuff of this world, and haunted by the possibility, and the impossibility, of a better one.”
“Ruefully, nobody perceives me as exceptionally gifted, intelligent, handsome, or physically strong. My sense of alienation stems from an inferiority complex, depressive nature, and manic tendencies that repulse other people. For many years, I passively accepted my clumsiness, uselessness, and lack of capacity for learning by avoiding serious literature and other opportunities for personal growth. I embraced personal ignorance by favoring tactile sensations and gross pleasure afforded in a materialistic culture that revels in a hedonistic lifestyle.”

“Rufinus was an orator and a lawyer, a master of civil administration and agenda. It was because of him that the Eastern Empire—Byzantium—became a bureaucracy for a thousand years; and lived on because its administration had become too intricate to die—though there are those who say that its death was concealed in a sea of paper for that one thousand years. The heritage of Rufinus was the first and longest-enduring paper Empire.
It is not accidental that in the tenure of Rufinus as Master of Offices, the duplication of written copies was first brought about. This was not on the order of carbon paper used at the instant of writing; it was wet-process copies made from a finished piece. The process is a detail, however; in the true sense Rufinus was the inventor of carbon copies. Shorthand was then five hundred years old, but Rufinus was the inventor of an improved form of shorthand.
It is believed that certain clerks of his appointing are still shuffling papers at the same desks. The paper world he set up was self-perpetuating.”

“Rufus didn’t pay any attention to the voice back then. At that time, he attributed the voice to his lack of confidence, causing him to doubt the durability of his friendship with Melissa. But as the years passed, the voice became louder in his head, and it seemed to be someone else’s. It didn’t sound like Rufus did when he spoke. And it didn’t think like he thought. The most crucial difference between Rufus and the voice was that it didn’t tell the truth because the truth was that only good things had happened to him since he’d met Melissa.”

“Rugby football is a game I can't claim absolutely to understand in all its niceties, if you know what I mean. I can follow the broad, general principles, of course. I mean to say, I know that the main scheme is to work the ball down the field somehow and deposit it over the line at the other end and that, in order to squalch this programme, each side is allowed to put in a certain amount of assault and battery and do things to its fellow man which, if done elsewhere, would result in 14 days without the option, coupled with some strong remarks from the Bench.”
“Rugby has always been a game for all shapes and sizes. You have the superstars and the fast guys who score the tries, but you also need the workhorses and the people who play all the other roles. Unless they all work together as a team then it's really going to affect the performance. Everyone's got to rely on everyone else.”

“Ruh, farklı renklerdeki ışıklar boyunca rasgele hareket ediyordu, her renk farklı tür bir rahmi, farklı bir yeniden doğuşu simgeliyordu. Bütün kötü rahimlerden uzak durup sonunda açık beyaz ışığa gelmek göçmüş ruhun işiydi. Bunu Nicholas’a anlatmaya karar verdim, çünkü kafası zaten yeterince karışıktı.”

“Ruhun genişse, sokağın darlığı seni rahatsız etmez; ruhun darsa, sokağın genişliği seni rahatlatmaz!”
“Ruhun tümüyle dayanabileceği, geçmişi anımsamaksızın ve geleceğe el uzatmaksızın bütün benliğini toplayabileceği; zamanı hiçe sayabileceği; var olmaktan başka, yoksulluk hazzına da, zevkin ve üzüntünün, isteğin ve korkunun gereksinime duyulamayacağı bir durum varsa, bu durum sürdükçe herkes, yaşamın eğlencelerinde bulunan eksik, yoksul ve görece bir mutluluğa değil de ruhta doldurmak gereği duyulan hiçbir boşluk bırakmayan olgunlaşmış ve yetkin bir mutluluğa kavuştuğunu söyleyebilir.
Böyle bir durumda neden zevk alınır? Sanırım dışımızdan, kendimizden başka, yaşamımızdan başka şeylerden değil; insan yaşadıkça, Tanrı gibi, kendine yeter. Herhangi bir bağı olmayan yaşama duygusu, değeril bir hoşnutluk ve erinçlik duygusudur; boyuna aklımızı çelen, yaşamın tadını kaçıran kösnül ve maddesel duygulardan sıyrılmasını bilenler için, güzel ve tatlıdır. Ama, ardı arkası gelmez tutkularla çalkalanan insanların çoğu bu ruh durumunu bilmez; a da o denli az bilir ki tadına varamazlar. Dahası, bu tatlı kendinden geçmeleri isteyerek, gereksinimleri durmaksızın değişen yaşamdan iğrenmeleri, bugünkü koşullarda doğru değildir. Ama toplumdan dışlanan ve yeryüzünde ne kendisine ne de başkalarına yarayacak bir şey yapabilen bir mutsuz, talihin ve benzerlerinin elinden alamayacağı bir tür mutluluk bulur.”
