✍️ Dave Eggers

Her name sounded both regal and smooth, like a trickle of warm water and thus far she herself seemed regal and smooth like warm water  (The Eyes and the Impossible)

She was a very good talker and a very good listener and I have to admit I drank from her mind as I would a perfect spring after a long hot day (The Eyes and the Impossible)

📙Interesting Facts

Memory 

The more a person recalls a memory, the more they change it. Each time they put it into language, it shifts. The more you describe a memory, the more likely it is that you are making a story that fits your life, resolves the past, creates a fiction you can live with. It’s what writers do. Once you open your mouth, you are moving away from the truth of things. According to neuroscience.

✍️ William Faulkner

“The aim of every artist is to arrest motion, which is life, by artificial means and hold it fixed so that a hundred years later, when a stranger looks at it, it moves again since it is life.”
