Quotes by Philip Schultz  (?)

“To pay for my father's funeral I borrowed money from people he already owed money to. One called him a nobody. No, I said, he was a failure. You can't remember a nobody's name, that's why they're called nobodies. Failures are unforgettable.”
Philip Schultz, Failure

“I could take a walk with my wife and try
to explain the ghosts I can't stop speaking to.
Or I could read all those books piling up
about the beginning of the end of understanding...
Meanwhile, it's such a beautiful morning,
the changing colors, the hypnotic light.
I could sit by the window watching the leaves,
which seem to know exactly how to fall
from one moment to the next. Or I could lose
everything and have to begin over again.”
Philip Schultz, Failure

“Hiding is existing in a constant state of alarm, remaining undiscovered, and inferior.”
Philip Schultz, The Wherewithal: A Novel in Verse
