Fishing is much more than fish. It is the great occasion when we may return to the fine simplicity of our forefathers (It Is Quotes)
There will be days when the fishing is better than one’s most optimistic forecast, others when it is far worse. Either is a gain over just staying home (It Is Quotes)

I'm just trying to look at something without blinking, to see what it is like, or it could have been like, and how that had something to do with the way we live now. Novels are always inquiries for me (It Is Quotes)
Tell us what it is to be a woman so that we may know what it is to be a man. What moves at the margin. What it is to have no home in this place. To be set adrift from the one you knew. What it is to live at the edge of towns that cannot bear your company (It Is Quotes)

If it is nothingness that awaits us, let us make an injustice of it; let us fight against destiny, even though without hope of victory (It Is Quotes)
Suffering is the substance of life and the root of personality, for it is only suffering that makes us persons (It Is Quotes)
For it is the suffering flesh, it is suffering, it is death, that lovers perpetuate upon the Earth. Love is at once the brother, son, and father of death, which is its sister, mother, and daughter.
