Paul Ryan, he is the real evil genius of the Republican party. He with his little hateful widow's peak and his smirky, snarly, simpering non-entity self, that's who I detest. Trump's just a moron, but Ryan is ugly and evil.

We're all hoping that Trump doesn't get our world on his terms because there won't be anything of it left. Trump is a true psychopath, a psychopath in the way that tragedy becomes tragedy.

If you lose all hope, you can always find it again.

At heart, of course, a story itself is consolation's instrument.

Only sometimes you can't feel anything about a subject without hypothesizing its extinction.

I didn't read a serious book until I was 19.
