    “What do you do in the Grand Hotel? Eat, sleep, loaf around, flirt a little, dance a little. A hundred doors leading to one hall. No one knows anything about the person next to them. And when you leave, someone occupies your room, lies in your bed. That’s the end.”
    —William A. Drake (1900–1965)

    “Just think of all the spare time that has flown
    Straight into nothingness by being filled
    With forks and faces....”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “Twenty years ago I wanted to move to a nice place so our Charley would grow up a nice boy and learn a profession. But instead we live in a jungle, so he can only be a wild animal. D’you think I picked the East Side like Columbus picked America?”
    —Abraham Polonsky (b. 1910)
