Richard Rodriguez Quotes
Books Should Confuse. Literature Abhors The Typical. Literature Flows To The Particular, The Mundane, The Greasiness Of Paper, The Taste Of Warm Beer, The Smell Of Onion Or Quince. Auden Has A Line: "Ports Have Names They Call The Sea." Just So Will Literature Describe Life Familiarly, Regionally, In Terms Life Is Accustomed To Use
High Or Low Matters Not. Literature Cannot By This Impulse Betray The Grandeur Of Its Subject
There Is Only One Subject: What It Feels Like To Be Alive. Nothing Is Irrelevant. Nothing Is Typical.
