what makes that your favorite quote OP

Mine's probably: "A warm human plumpness settled down on his brain. His brain yielded. Perfume of embraces all him assailed. With hungered flesh obscurely, he mutely craved to adore."

Joyce's sentences spring with such rich sounds and perfect form, that line makes me want to write and be great more than anything else. Pure motivation.

“There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.

There is another theory which states that this has already happened.”-Douglas Adams
