"Instead of clinging to the only Lifeboat that can save, we have tossed overboard biblical truths in the name of [compromise], living on the edge of life, like the man who rides the parameter of a hurricane, daring it to sweep him away."

Julian Barnes
"How weird it would be to have around you only as many books as you have time to read in the rest of your life. And I remain deeply attached to the physical book and the physical bookshop."

Literature

Quote_1.png
Julian Barnes
"One of the things he had learned in life, and which he hoped he could rely on, was that a greater pain drives out a lesser one. A strained muscle disappears before toothache, toothache disappears before a crushed finger. He hoped - it was his only hope now - that the pain of cancer, the pain of dying , would drive out the pains of love. It did not seem likely."

Resilience

Julian Barnes
"What does the novel do? It tells beautiful, shapely lies which enclose hard, exact truths."

Philosophy

Quote_1.png
Julian Barnes
"Art is the whisper of history, heard above the noise of time. Art does not exist for art's sake: it exists for people's sake."

Art

Julian Barnes
"May you be ordinary, as the poet once wished the new-born baby."

Life

Quote_1.png
Julian Barnes
"The writer has little control over personal temperament, none over historical moment, and is only partly in charge of his or her own aesthetic."

Art

Quote_1.png
Julian Barnes
"The better you know someone, the less well you often see them (and the less well they can therefore be transferred into fiction). They may be so close as to be out of focus, and there is no operating novelist to dispel the blur."

Perception

Quote_1.png
Julian Barnes
"Flaubert didn't just hate the railway as such; he hated the way it flattered people with the illusion of progress. What was the point of scientific advance without moral advance? The railway would merely permit more people to move about, meet and be stupid together."

Society

Quote_1.png
Julian Barnes
"Music - good music, great music - had a hard, irreducible purity to it. It might be bitter and despairing and pessimistic, but it could never be cynical. If music is tragic, those with asses' ears accuse it of being cynical. But when a composer is bitter, or in despair, or pessimistic, that still means he believes in something."

Music

Julian Barnes
"History isn't the lies of the victors, as I once glibly assured Old Joe Hunt; I know that now. It's more the memories of the survivors, most of whom are neither victorious or defeated."
