By the by, since we started up a whole new topic with the Dostoevsky quote, here's a few more I got from a friend. I think some (maybe even all) are taken from Bananafish... "Sentiment without action is the ruin of the soul." - Edward Abbey "In a time of universal deceit-telling the truth is a revolutionary act." -George Orwell "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds; and the pessimist fears this is true." - James Branch Cabell from The Silver Stallion, 1926. "There are an infinity of angles at which one falls, only one at which one stands." - G.K. Chesterton "Man is certainly stark mad: he cannot make a flea, yet he makes gods by the dozens. -Montaigne "She had a nice voice. A nice telephone voice mostly. She should have carried a goddamn telephone around with her" -H. Caulfield
