“Baseball is a universe as large as life itself, and therefore all thin...” — Paul Auster Quote

“Baseball is a universe as large as life itself, and therefore all things in life, whether good or bad, whether tragic or comic, fall within its domain.”

“but even the facts do not always tell the truth”

“I like the sound a typewriter makes.”

“Make a careful list of all things done to you that you abhorred. Don't do them to others, ever.”

“An empty book is like an infant's soul, in which anything may be written. It is capable of all things, but containeth nothing. I have a mind to fill this with profitable wonders.”

“There was a lot of pressure to find a genre and stick to it. People would tell me all the time, 'You can't be all things to everyone.' I would say, 'I'm not trying to be! I'm being what I want to be for myself.'”
