"I was six when I saw that everything was God, and my hair stood up, and all that... It was Sunday, I remember. My sister was only a very tiny child then, and she was driking her milk, and all of sudden I saw that she was god and the milk was god. I mean, all she was doing was pouring God into God, if you know what I mean."
-Teddy, Nine Stories
"I long to embrace, to include in my own short life, all that is accessible to man. I long to speak, to read, to wield a hammer in a great factory, to keep watch at sea, to plow. i want to be walking along the Nevsky Prospect, or in the open fields, or on the ocean-wherever my imagination ranges."
-Anton Chekhov
