Going to Hell

“One can reach the gates of hell just as easily by short steps as by large.”

Aloysius Pendergast

Another great quote from the Pendergast novels by Preston and Child. The books make wonderful summer reading. They have little redeeming intellectual value but are very engaging. You can read one in a day or two. Think Louis Lamour or Earle Stanley Gardener.
The photo is of some modern pieces by Chihuly in a private collection in St Petersburg.

Sensory Extension

“We listen to the unspoken, we gaze upon the unseen.”

Kakuzo Okakura,  The Book of Tea

From the Pendergast novels by Preston and Child. The books make wonderful summer reading. They have little redeeming intellectual value but are very engaging. You can read one in a day or two. Think Louis Lamour or Earle Stanley Gardener.

Information

“Information is like electricity. It powers the light that allows us to see our way forward.”

Aloysius Pendergast

The first in a series of quotes from the Pendergast novels by Preston and Child. The books are definitely summer reading. They have little redeeming intellectual value but are very engaging. You can read one in a day. Think Louis Lamour or Earle Stanley Gardener.
