“God Almighty, why didin’t Anse carry you to the
nearest sawmill and stick your leg in the saw?
That would have cured it. Then, you all could have stuck
his head into the saw and cured a whole family.”

I read "The Sound and the Fury" and thought it was wonderfully original, a brilliant novel.

Absalom, Absalom! is still the best mindfuck I've ever had. Can't even quote it, 4 page long sentences, 20 plus page parentheticals...Just amazing.
I only ever had but one prayer to God, that was: "O, Lord, make my enemies ridiculous." And he granted it.--Voltaire
