Favorite line:
"He'd felt like some enormous tube of linguistic paste. Diatribe, alibi, anecdote, confession, expostulation, promotion, pedagogy, philosophy, assault, apologia, denunciation, a foaming confluence of passion and language, and all for an audience of one. Into his parched-out desert, that oasis of words!"
If you've never understood what makes literature so great, the above quote is an example. Beautiful, beautiful words.
