(no subject)
At some point this summer I fell out of the habit of writing down snippets from books. I hadn't even realized it, it was just something that slipped away. Only tonight, searching through two different notebooks for a perfect turn of phrase that I only vaguely remember and thought for sure I must have recorded, did I discover this. All I find are a few fragments of poems, several straight pages from Mrs. Dalloway, and this:
"Now, I believe that all troubles come from the misconception that human brains are located in the head. They are not: human brains are blown in by the winds from somewhere around the Caspian Sea."
"The Diary of a Madman," Gogol
So it would seem.
