“ Life of Pi Yann Martel:I know what you want. You want a story that won't surprise you. That will confirm what you already know. That won't make you see higher or further or differently. You want a flat story. An immobile story. You want dry, yeastless factuality. (p. 381) #Books - Reading#Books - Reading

“ Life of Pi Yann Martel:There were many seas. The sea roared like a tiger. The sea whispered in your ear like a friend telling you secrets. The sea clinked like small change in a pocket.

“ Life of Pi Yann Martel:If you stumble at mere believability, what are you living for? Isn't love hard to believe? #Love#Love

“ Life of Pi Yann Martel:The reason death sticks so closely to life isn't biological necessity — it's envy.
