Neorealism Quotes

Ed walked away from the program feeling fortified and stapled. His brain was buzzing, the way it always did just after Jeopardy!

"I've had it with puns, alliteration, Russian literature, Italian neorealism, meaningless cross-references, and laundry lists of nonsense. I shall drive without a license, without clothing, without direction, and if I make it to Arkansas, fine, and if I'm running late, if I'm running a numbers game, it doesn't matter, I shall keep on running.

Pain is better than emptiness, emptiness is better than nothing, and nothing is better than this." (John S. Hall)
