Siri Hustvedt Quotes
This Small Encounter Had A Disproportionately Large Effect On Me. I Saw Myself In Relief, Separate And Distinct From The Others In The Class, And Even Though He Didn't Speak To Me In That Way For A Long Time, I Began To Regard Professor Rose As A Secret Ally. This Transformation Took Place Gradually, And I Can't Say Whether It Existed Solely In My Mind Or Whether He Was Responsible For It. I Know That I Started To Look Forward To Seeing Him On Tuesdays, That His Face Was Pleasing, His Severity Undercut By Humor, And That I Read The Assigned Books With New Zeal.
