More From James Thurber
- "Progress was all right. Only it went on too long."
- "The appreciative smile, the chuckle, the soundless mirth, so important to the success of comedy, cannot be understood unless one sits among the audience and feels the warmth created by the quality of laughter that the audience takes home with it."
- "The wit makes fun of other persons; the satirist makes fun of the world; the humorist makes fun of himself, but in so doing, he identifies himself with people – that is, people everywhere, not for the purpose of taking them apart, but simply revealing their true nature."

- "End-of-the-world stories tend to ring true. I’ve always been drawn to them, but as I wrote my own, I found surprising pleasure in creating a world that is so radically changed, yet where there’s so much meaning and value in every small and ordinary thing we have, and take for granted: hot showers, enough food, friends, routines."― Karen Thompson Walker
- "Food has always brought me comfort and the bingeing is triggered when I’m in a space that is not positive."― Janet Jackson
- "There was still food rationing in England and life was difficult all through my 2 year stay in Oxford."― Sydney Brenner
