...sometimes hate gets you further than love. The best thing is to look for a shady spot in life and keep still.

Whenever I didn't understand a man, I just smiled. I think I smiled half my life away.

Cannery Row but post-war Vienna

This is a book enjoyed only by people who gravitate toward quiet, plotless books

I love the simple commentary about life and witnessing the cafe and its patrons age
