I know you'll learn something picking up my books, but my goal as a writer is not to teach you but to make you ask more questions.”

“The lore of our fathers is a fabric of sentences. In our hands it develops and changes, through more or less arbitrary and deliberate revisions and additions of our own, more or less directly occasioned by the continuing stimulation of our sense organs.
