Norman Mailer quotes

"It's a misperception of me that I am a wild man — I wish I still were. I'm 68 years old. The rage now is, oh, so deep it's almost comfortable. It has even approached the point where I can live with it philosophically. The world's not what I want it to be. But then no one ever said I had the right to design the world."

 Time Magazine, Sep. 30, 1991


"We sail across dominions barely seen, washed by the swells of time. We plow through fields of magnetism. Past and future come together on thunderheads and our dead hearts live with lightning in the wounds of the Gods."
 Ancient Evenings

"There is nothing safe about sex. There never will be."
 The International Herald Tribune, Jan. 24, 1992
