" "A wise man once said that next to losing its mother, there is nothing more healthy for a child than to lose its father. And though I would never subscribe to such a statement wholeheartedly, I would be the last person to reject it out of hand. For my own part, I would express such a doctrine without any suggestion of bitterness against the world, or rather without the hurt which the mere sound of the words implies.

Additional quotes by Halldór Laxness
Often I think the Almighty is like a snow bunting abandoned in all weathers. Such a bird is about the weight of a postage stamp.
