I like to write about the solitary things people do. Humans seem to function best when they're alone. -Thomas McGuane Alone
Marriage is anti-romantic - husband and wife are terms like 'turkey' and 'goose.' Worse, they denote ownership. -Thomas McGuane Marriage
My parents and my sister died... very close together, and after that, I lost quite a bit of my sense of humor. Most of it I think has kind of come back, but I know there was a time when I didn't think things were funny anymore. I kind of think they're funny again. -Thomas McGuane Humor
