William Faulkner
Books quotes
The Sound and the Fury
1929
Clocks slay time. Time is dead as long as it is being clicked off by little wheels; only when the clock stops does time come to life.
William Faulkner
Women do have an affinity for evil, for believing that no woman is to be trusted, but that some men are too innocent to protect themselves.
William Faulkner
