Jonathan Safran Foer
Succotash my Balzac, dipshiitake.
Jonathan Safran Foer

Jonathan Safran Foer

Jonathan Safran Foer
People who become used to saying little become used to feeling little.
Jonathan Safran Foer
I'm not better than anyone, and I'm not trying to convince people to live by my standards of what's right. I'm trying to convince them to live by their own.
Jonathan Safran Foer
Sometimes I imagined stitching all of our little touches together. How many hundreds of thousands of fingers brushing against each other does it take to make love? Why does anyone ever make love?
Jonathan Safran Foer
If the thrill of hunting were in the hunt, or even in the marksmanship, a camera would do just as well.
Jonathan Safran Foer
How beautiful is forgetting! What relief it would be for the world to lose some of its contents.
Jonathan Safran Foer

Jonathan Safran Foer
