This site is no longer being kept up to date, but it has some nice quotes from past reads.Siri Hustvedt :: What I Loved
"That's the problem with seeing things. Nothing is clear. Feelings, ideas shape what's in front of you. Cézanne wanted the naked world, but the world is never naked. In my work, I want to create doubt." He stopped and smiled at me. "Because that's what we're sure of."
"Forgetting," I said, "is probably as much a part of life as remembering. We're all amnesiacs."
I knew that if I wasn't careful, the secret ... could fester like a sore. I also knew that I had to keep it. Nothing would come of confession, except my own relief.
