Theroux

Famous quotes containing the word theroux:

“Where there is no style, there is in effect no point of view. There is, essentially, no anger, no conviction, no self. Style is opinion, hung washing, the calibre of a bullet, teething beads.... One’s style holds one, thankfully, at bay from the enemies of it but not from the stupid crucifixions by those who must willfully misunderstand it.”
—Alexander Theroux (b. 1940)

“Travel is glamorous only in retrospect.”
—Paul Theroux (b. 1941)

“September: it was the most beautiful of words, he’d always felt, evoking orange-flowers, swallows, and regret.”
—Alexander Theroux (b. 1940)
