    “Most critical writing is drivel and half of it is dishonest.... It is a short cut to oblivion, anyway. Thinking in terms of ideas destroys the power to think in terms of emotions and sensations.”
    —Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)

    “The bourgeois treasures nothing more highly than the self.... And so at the cost of intensity he achieves his own preservation and security.

    —Hermann Hesse (1877–1962)
