Writer's Block: The start of something wonderful
[Error: unknown template qotd]
"Aujourd'hui, maman est morte. Ou peut-être hier, je ne sais pas."
L'étranger, Albert Camus
It is, first of all, on of the only book quotes I know by heart.
It's also because it's so poignant, the matter-of-fact tone used as well as a certain naivety.
It's the perfect opening to a great book that carries this naivety and this certain distance with events.
(Ravenclaw icon for nerdy times!)
