“I was prepared to love you,
And never expect anything of you.
If the spirit has left you baby,
Don’t lie to yourself.
Put them old records on,
And admit that it’s gone somewhere else”

“They were still in the happier stage of love. They were full of brave illusions about each other, tremendous illusions, so that the communion of self with self seemed to be on a plane where no other human relations mattered. They both seemed to have arrived there with an extraordinary innocence as though a series of pure accidents had driven them together, so many accidents that at last they were forced to conclude that they were for each other. They had arrived with clean hands, or so it seemed, after no traffic with the merely curious and clandestine.”

- F. Scott Fitzgerald, Tender Is The Night

The Imperfectionists is an absolutely delightful breath of fresh air, for lack of a better term, in today’s era of contemporary fiction. For anybody who has been connected to journalism at all, whether through study, practice or appreciation, it is a must read, and for lovers of vignettes and short stories, the character development is like a shot of espresso: quick, dark yet utterly penetrating. I highly recommend it.

“Reading is everything. Reading makes me feel like I’ve accomplished something, learned something, become a better person. Reading makes me smarter. Reading gives me something to talk about later on. Reading is the unbelievably healthy way my attention deficit disorder medicates itself. Reading is escape, and the opposite of escape; it’s a way to make contact with reality after a day of making things up, and it’s a way of making contact with someone else’s imagination after a day that’s all too real. Reading is grist. Reading is bliss.”

- Nora Ephron

“The more one does and sees and feels, the more one is able to do, and the more genuine may be one’s appreciation of fundamental things like home, and love, and understanding companionship.”
