(4/4) I’ll end my intro with a cheerful and uplifting quote from The Sheltering Sky by Paul Bowles, 1949. It’s too long, so here is a screenshot of text, which feels quite hacky 😑
I didn’t know about the Brandon Lee connection. He planned to use this quote on his wedding invitations, but instead it went on his tombstone. Ugh!

“I suspect that a good many people will read this book and be enthralled by it without once suspecting that it contains a mirror of what is most terrifying and cryptic within the Sahara of moral nihilism, into which the race of man now seems to be wandering blindly.”
December 4, 1949

.. How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood, some afternoon that’s so deeply a part of your being that you can’t even conceive of your life without it? Perhaps four or five times more. Perhaps not even that. How many more times will you watch the full moon rise? Perhaps twenty. And yet it all seems limitless.”

HE OPENED HIS EYES. The room was malignant. It was empty. “Now, at last, I must fight against this room.”
