Michael Chabon Quotes

In [Bloom's] Having Managed To Sustain His Curiosity About The People And The World Around Him After Thirty-eight Years Of Familiarity And Routine That Ought To Have Dulled And Dampened It; And Above All In The Abiding Capacity For Empathy, For Moral Imagination, That Is The Fruit Of An Observant Curiosity Like Bloom's, I Found, As If Codified, A Personal Definition Of Heroism.
Ulysses Struck Me, Most Of All, As A Book Of Life; Every Sentence, Even Those That Laid Bare The Doubt, Despair, Shame, Or Vanity Of Its Characters, Seemed To Have Been Calibrated To Assert, In Keeping With The Project Of The Work As A Whole, The Singularity And Worth Of Even The Most Humdrum And Throwaway Of Human Days. Michael Chabon
