Sushant Ainapure sushantainapure1294e — One of Gaiman's better novels. I still like Neverwhere best though.

Antonio Garcia vipervirtu2b59 — “If I found a job, a project, an idea or a person I wanted- I’d have to depend on the whole world. Everything has strings tied to everything else. We’re all in a net, the net is waiting, and we’re pushed into it by one single desire. You want a thing and it’s precious to you. Do you know who is standing ready to tear it out of your hands? You can’t know it may be so involved and so far away, but someone is ready, and you’re afraid of them all. And you cringe and you crawl and you beg and you accept them- just so they’ll let you keep it. And look whom you come to accept.” “There’s some good in the worse of us. There’s always a redeeming feature.” “What do you want? Perfection?” “—or nothing. So, you see I take the nothing.” “That doesn’t make sense.” “I take the only desire one can really permit oneself. Freedom.” “You call that freedom?” “To ask nothing. To expect nothing. To depend on nothing.” “What if you found something that you wanted?” “No, I wouldn’t go into law if I were you. You’re much too tense and passionate about tit. A hysterical devotion to one’s career deed not make happiness or success. It is wiser to select a profession about which you can be calm, sane and matter-of-fact.” “All growth demands destruction. You can’t make an omelet without breaking eggs. You must be willing to suffer, to be cruel, to be dishonest, to be unclean-anything my dear, anything to kill the most stubborn of roots, the ego. And only when it is dead, when you care no longer, when you have lost your identity and forgotten the name of your soul-only then will know that kind of happiness I spoke about, and the gates of spiritual grandeur will fall open before you.” He spent more time with Dominique. Dominique watched him complacency, as if he presents no further problem to her. She seemed to find him suitable as an inconsequential companion for an occasional inconsequential evening. He thought that she liked him. He knew that this was not an encouraging sign…He forgot all the reasons that prompted him to want her. He felt no need to be prompted. He wanted her. He needed no reasons now but the excitement of her presence. Yet the felt helpless before her…” “He went away, relieved and desolate, cursing himself for the fill, persistent feeling that told him he had missed a chance which would never return; that something was closing in on them both and they had surrendered. He cursed, because he could not say what it was that they should have fought.” “My dear, you will never be more than a dilettante of the intellect, unless you submerge yourself in a cause greater than yourself.” “We cannot know what will be right or wrong in a selfless society, nor what we will feel, nor in what manner. We must destroy the ego first. That is why the mind is so unreliable. We must not think. We must believe…even if your mind objects. Don’t think. Believe. Trust your heart, not your brain. Don’t think.. Feel. Believe.” “Love is reverence, and worship and glory and the upward glance. Not a bandage for dirty sores…Those who speak of love most promiscuously are the ones who never felt it. They make some feeble stew out of sympathy, compassion, contempt and general indifference, and they call it love. Once you’ve felt what it means to love as you and I know it- the total passion for the total height, you’re incapable of anything less.” “It takes two to make every great career; the man who is great, and the man- almost rarer- who is great enough to see greatness and say so.”

Timothy Scaffidi timscaffidi — This book comes highly recommended from Andrew Heffner, and he's usually right about these sorts of things.

Sébastien Sanchez seb_pus — Lafferty's take on the displacement of Choctaw, Cherokee, Seminole, and others to "Indian Territory", told through a life of a 19th century Choctaw named Hannali.

Askar Essentugelov _skar19 — With the passing of J.D. Salinger recently I wanted to give The Catcher in the Rye another read. It's probably been 25 or 30 years since I last read it. I definitely think the book had an effect on me as a teenager, and now reading it again it's easy to see why. Holden Caulfield may not be every teenager, but he certainly represents many of the issues a young adult male faces as he attempts to figure things out. And while Holden perhaps took things to the extreme, and obviously ended up going over the edge, I certainly related to the issues that drove him to the loony bin...things like not understanding girls, and not fitting in at school, and thinking everyone and everything was phony (to use his term). I really enjoyed reading it again, and this time I had a whole new perspective given that I am in my 40s and have a son who is about to become a teenager. Hopefully I'll be able to share these lessons with my son and keep him out of therapy!
