Quotes

I love quotes, and reading in general. Here is a quote from Casey who loves John Steinbeck. I have always wanted to read East of Eden, so when I searched for this quote, I found numerous quotes on existence and life. After reading his quotes, I think Steinbeck may be next author on my book list.


I have always lived violently, drunk hugely, eaten too much or not at all, slept around the clock or missed two nights of sleeping, worked too hard and too long in glory, or slobbed for a time in utter laziness. I've lifted, pulled, chopped, climbed, made love with joy and taken my hangovers as a consequence, not as a punishment.
-John Steinbeck, Travels with Charley: In Search of America (Yes, not from East of Eden, but still moving)
