Quotes by Rob Doyle  (?)
Quotes are added by the Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ community and are not verified by Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ.

“We get tattoos in the same spirit in which we write books. The crucial thing in both cases is to do it while you still have the nerve to say what’s true before it gets overlaid by other truths. Write books full of insight you know will vanish, that you know you’ll come to regret voicing even, before you become someone else, someone mellower or happier, more compromised or timid, someone who can no longer withstand the truths you have it in you now to express. Even if you eventually regard such truths as dangerous mistakes, they’ll have been your stepping stones to the knowledge of the future. Books and tattoo must be records of disappearing ideals.”
Rob Doyle, Autobibliography

“All in all, nothing human is worth taking very seriously; nevertheless”
Rob Doyle, Threshold

“Time rushes past. We become swept up in life’s tumult. Years go by, full of drama and event. We roam the world. And then, during moments of calm, we see that time hasn’t really gone anywhere, just as we ourselves are right where we were ten years earlier, though our skin is tougher and lines are etched in our faces.”
Rob Doyle, Threshold
