John Irving Quotes"Your memory is a monster; you forget - it doesn't. It simply files things away. It keeps things for you, or hides things from you - and summons them to your recall with a will of its own. You think you have a memory; but it has you!" "To each other, we were as normal and nice as the smell of bread. We were just a family. In a family even exaggerations make perfect sense." "You've got to get obsessed and stay obsessed." "If you are lucky enough to find a way of life you love, you have to find the courage to live it." "There are few things as seemingly untouched by the real world as a child asleep." "Writing a novel is actually searching for victims. As I write I keep looking for casualties. The stories uncover the casualties." "Half my life is an act of revision."
