Character is the plot in many ways ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
A father is a hard thing to compass. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
As artists we are here to make you uncomfortable with the complexity of your reality. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Beli, who'd been waiting for something exactly like her body her whole life, was sent over the moon by what she now knew. By the undeniable concreteness of her desirability which was, in its own way, Power. Like the accidental discovery of the One Ring. Like stumbling into the wizard Shazam's cave or finding the crashed ship of the Green Lantern! Hypatia Belicia Cabral finally had power and a true sense of self. Started pinching her shoulders back, wearing the tightest clothes she had. Dios mío, La Inca said every time the girl headed out. Why would God give you that burden in this country of all places! ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
When you're the ones in the life raft and you have four or five women in the life raft who put it together, by the end of it your nerves are blown. The people you're going to attack are the people who are helping you, who you are holding it together with. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
For me it's a remarkable thing that there is a prize celebrating and honouring and making for a brief moment short fiction the centre of the literary universe. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
But it's clear to me that us slow-poke writers are a dying breed. It's amazing how thoroughly my young writing students have internalized the new machine rhythm, the rush many of my young writers are in to publish. The majority don't want to sit on a book for four, five years. The majority don't want to listen to the silence inside and outside for their artistic imprimatur. The majority want to publish fast, publish now. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Neatly at its foot, a gauze. I hear her gargling in the bathroom. My hands and feet are blue from the cold and I cannot see through the window for the frost and icicles. When Ana Iris starts ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
She would be a new person, she vowed. They said no matter how far a mule travels it can never come back a horse, but she would show them all. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Student today don't mean na', but in a Latin America whipped into a frenzy by the Fall of Arbenz, by the Stoning of Nixon, by the Guerrillas of the Sierra Madre, by the endless cynical maneuverings of the Yankee Pig Dogs - in a Latin America already a year and half into the Decade of the Guerrilla - a student was something else altogether, an agent for change, a vibrating quantum string in the staid Newtonian universe. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Usually at the end of each story we're thrown clear out of the story's world and then we're given a new world to enter. What's unique about a linked collection is that it can deliver both sets of narrative pleasures - the novel's long immersion into character-world and the story anthology's energetic (and mortal) brevity - the linked collection is unique in its ability to be both abrupt and longitudinal simultaneously. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
I know for a fact that - it's just the way our biases work now in the industry of literature, but certainly a short story collection does not receive the same kind of attention as a novel. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
They only hit he you, he says, when they care. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
I wring my hands because I know that as a dude, my privilege, my long-term deficiencies work against me in writing women, no matter how hard I try and how talented I am. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Then we fucked so that we could pretend that nothing hurtful had just happened. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
I felt like summer had taken me over. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
My thing is every generation of Americans has to answer what we call the 'Superman Question.' Superman comes, lands in America. He's illegal. He's one of these kids. He's wrapped up in a red bullfighter's cape. And you've got to decide what we're gonna do with Superman. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
People can say what they want, but historically, feminism in the Dominican Republic has been extremely strong. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
As for my slowness as a writer - that's been a struggle, no question. We live in a culture that values and rewards machine-speed productivity. Even the arts are expected to conform to the Taylor model of productivity. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Personally I always feel like I could use a little more of poetry apothegmatic power in my own work but we're always lacking something. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
I'm sure I'm one of those undiagnosed people with social anxiety. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
There is a lot of scepticism today as to whether memoir is real. But when fiction is done at a certain level there is scepticism as to whether it is really fiction. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
...sometimes a start is all we ever get. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
When I write, what I long for is not more realism or fiction but more courage. That's what I always find myself short on and what I have to struggle to achieve in order that the work might live. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
The half-life of love is forever. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Because anything you can dream (he put his hand up) you can be. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
But most of all books (I say again and again) are like the Thirty-Mile Woman from Toni Morrison's Beloved: 'She is a friend of my mind. She gather me, man. The pieces I am, she gather them and give them back to me in all the right order.' ~ Junot Diaz, author of the Pulitzer Prize novel The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao. ~ Leah Price
Junot Diaz quotes by Leah Price
But I just knew, from everything that I saw, that there is no transcending the human experience. You've got to realize that most of us feel permanently displaced and savagely undone. Most of us try everything we can to manage our fears and our insecurities. Most of us are profoundly inhuman to ourselves and other people, and that makes us no less valuable, and no less worthy of attention and love. I didn't transcend all this stuff, you just got to live with them, man, and there's nothing like trying to run away from all that stuff to guarantee its supremacy. My idea is to change at least the percentage of the vote. These voices are always going to get a vote, but do they always have to have the majority of the vote? ... You try to distribute who you are in different proportions, but the transcendence myth will just do you in, in the long run. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
It's like Abuela says: Every snake always thinks it's biting into a rat until the day it bites into a mongoose. That ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
I sort through piles of sheets with gloved hands. The dirties are brought down by orderlies, morenas mostly. I never see the sick; they visit me through the stains and marks they leave on the sheets, the alphabet of the sick and dying. A lot of the time the stains are too deep and I have to throw these linens in the special hamper. One of the girls from Baitoa tells me she's heard that everything in the hamper gets incinerated. Because of the sida, she whispers. Sometimes the stains are rusty and old and sometimes the blood smells sharp as rain. You'd think, given the blood we see, that there's a great war going on out in the world. Just ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
He wrote that Ybón had little hairs coming up to her almost her bellybutton and that she crossed her eyes when he entered her but what really got him was not the bam-bam-bam of sex – it was the little intimacies that he'd never in his whole life anticipated, like combing her hair or getting her underwear off a line or watching her walk naked to the bathroom or the way she would suddenly sit on his lap and put her face into his neck. The intimacies like listening to her tell him about being a little girl and him telling her that he'd been a virgin all his life. He wrote that he couldn't believe he'd had to wait for this so goddamn long. (Ybón was the one who suggested calling the wait something else. Yeah, like what? Maybe, she said, you could call it life.) He wrote: So this is what everybody's always talking about! Diablo! If only I'd known. The beauty! The beauty! ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
You whispered my full name and we fell asleep in each other's arms and I remember how the next morning you were gone, completely gone, and nothing in my bed or the house could have proven otherwise. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
You ask everybody you know: How long does it usually take to get over it?
There are many formulas. One year for every year you dated. Two years for every year you dated. It's just a matter of will power: The day you decide it's over, it's over. You never get over it. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
I was, as a kid, really obsessed with reading ... that was about as geeky as you could possibly get. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
The thing is, you try your best, and what else you got? You try your best, really, that's all you can do. And for me, my best happens really so rarely. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
After his initial homecoming week, after he'd been taken to a bunch of sights by his cousins, after he'd gotten somewhat used to the scorching weather and the surprise of waking up to the roosters and being called Huascar by everybody (that was his Dominican name, something else he'd forgotten), after he refused to succumb to that whisper that all long-term immigrants carry inside themselves, the whisper that says You do not belong, after he'd gone to about fifty clubs and because he couldn't dance salsa, merengue, or bachata had sat and drunk Presidentes while Lola and his cousins burned holes in the floor, after he'd explained to people a hundred times that he'd been separated from his sister at birth, after he spent a couple of quiet mornings on his own, writing, after he'd given out all his taxi money to beggars and had to call his cousin Pedro Pablo to pick him up, after he'd watched shirtless shoeless seven-year-olds fighting each other for the scraps he'd left on his plate at an outdoor cafe, after his mother took them all to dinner in the Zona Colonial and the waiters kept looking at their party askance (Watch out, Mom, Lola said, they probably think you're Haitian - La unica haitiana aqui eres tu, mi amor, she retorted), after a skeletal vieja grabbed both his hands and begged him for a penny, after his sister had said, You think that's bad, you should see the bateys, after he'd spent a day in Bani (the camp where La Inca had been raised) and he'd taken a dump in a l ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Writing checks with his mouth that his ass could never hope to cover. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Oh, Beli; not so rashly, not so rashly: What did you know about states or diasporas? What did you know about Nueba Yol or unheated 'old law' tenements or children whose self-hate short-circuited their minds? What did you know, madame, about immigration? Don't laugh, mi negrita, for your world is about to be changed. Utterly. Yes: a terrible beauty is etc., etc. Take it from me. You laugh because you've been ransacked to the limit of your soul, because your lover betrayed you almost unto death, because your first son was never born. You laugh because you have no front teeth and you've sworn never to smile again. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Mami said nothing for a while, and then she went into her bedroom. I figured she was going to emerge with my father's Saturday-night special, the one thing of his that she'd kept when he left. To protect us, she claimed, but more likely to shoot my father dead if she ever saw him again. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
I never hear white writers get asked, 'Do you worry about how you represent white people?' ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
I never wanted to be away from the family. Intuitively, I knew how easily distances could harden and become permanent. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Knocked the architecture right out of his legs. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
I'm just this Dominican kid from New Jersey. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Only a bitch of color comes to Harvard to get pregnant. White women don't do that. Asian women don't do that. Only fucking black and Latina women. Why go to all the trouble to get into Harvard just to get knocked up? You could have stayed on the block and done that shit. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
This is how you treat your mother?" she cried. And if I could of I would have broken the entire length of my life across her face, but instead I screamed back, "And this is how you treat your daughter? ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Most people don't realize how sophisticated pool tables are. Yes, tables have bolts and staples on the rails but these suckers hold together mostly by gravity and by the precision of their construction. If you treat a good table right it will outlast you. Believe me. Cathedrals are built like that. There are Incan roads in the Andes that even today you couldn't work a knife between two of the cobblestones. The sewers that the Romans built in Bath were so good that they weren't replaced until the 1950's. That's the sort of thing that I can believe in. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Beli at thirteen believed in love like a seventy-year-old widow who's been abandoned by family, husband, children and fortune believes in God. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
For kind of sophisticated art I'm interested in, the larger structural rebuke has to be so subtle that it has to be distributed at an almost sub-atomic level. Otherwise, you fall into the kind of preachy, moralistic fable that I don't think makes for good literature. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Art is not boosterism, it's not propaganda, and it's not spin, but that's not something that art does, and nor has it historically ever done it. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
I am a chatty person, but colossally discreet. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Stared at the toothpick-thin blackgirl who worked at the Friendly's, whom he was in love with but with whom he would never speak. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Before we even swung onto 516 Nilda was in my brother's lap and he had his hand so far up her skirt it looked like he was performing a surgical procedure. When we were getting off the bus Rafa pulled me aside and held his hand in front of my nose. Smell this, he said. This is what's wrong with women. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
The world, you tell yourself, will never end. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
I seem to have to make my characters family before I can access their hearts in any way that matters. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
What is clear is that being a reader/fanboy (for lack of a better term) helped him get through the rough days of his youth, but it also made him stick out in the mean streets of Paterson even more than he already did. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
But if these years have taught me anything it is this: you can never run away. Not ever. The only way out is in. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
I'm one of those apocalyptics. From the start of my immigrant days, I've been fascinated by end-of-the-world stories, by outbreak narratives, and always wanted to set a world-ender on Hispaniola. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
A first lesson in the fragility of love and the preternatural cowardice of men. And out of this disillusionment and turmoil sprang Beli's first adult oath, one that would follow her into adulthood, to the States and beyond. I will not serve. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
I just read this great quote by Junot Diaz, he was talking about true intimacy, and he was saying that it was the willingness to be vulnerable and to be found out. That's what I felt that YA did. It wasn't pretentious, and it wasn't hiding its heart. It wanted to be found out ...
It felt like those moments when you go to a party and you're standing around for a long time, going, I don't fit in here, what am I going to talk to these people about? And everybody's getting drunk, and then you find this one person, and you end up sitting in some corner talking about all these arcane things.
And then before you know it you're having a conversation about the meaning of life and it's four o'clock in the morning. That kind of feeling, that kind of intimacy - I felt like that's what I got from YA. ~ Libba Bray
Junot Diaz quotes by Libba Bray
Mine (story) ain't the scariest, the clearest, the most painful, or the most beautiful. It just happens to be the one that's got it's fingers around my throat. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Instead of finding himself in nerd heaven - where every nerd gets fifty-eight virgins to role-play with - he woke up in Robert Wood Johnson with two broken legs and a separated shoulder, feeling like, well, he'd jumped off the New Brunswick train bridge. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
I can see myself watching him shave every morning. And at other time I see us in that house and see how one bright day (or a day like this, so cold your mind shifts every time the wind does) he will wake up and decide it's all wrong. I'm sorry, he'll say. I have to leave now. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
He's really jealous, Ybon said rather weakly. Just have him meet me, Oscar said. I make all boyfriends feel better about themselves. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Shot at twenty-seven times - what a Dominican number ... ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
In my view, a writer is a writer because even when there is no hope, even when nothing you do shows any sign of promise, you keep writing anyway. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
In my mind what novels do best is that they immerse us deeply into our character's world - they truly transport us deep into these spaces - but the same way you know a Hollywood movie won't end after thirty minutes, you carry in yourself the implicit contract that the novel won't throw you out of itself 'til the very end. That bulk of pages is a form of consolation, of security. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
If we do not begin to practice the muscles of having a possessive investment in each other's oppressions, then we are in some serious trouble. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
School until the day a teacher, acting on an anonymous tip from a member of the student body, surprised the undercover couple in flagrante delicto in a broom ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Before all hope died I used to have this stupid dream that shit could be saved, that we would be in bed together like the old times, with the fan on, the smoke from our weed drifting above us, and I'd finally try to say the words that could have saved us. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Besides it only happens when you're not looking for it.
That's what everybody claims. Easier to say that than This shit sucks. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
When I was thinking about these women characters, no matter how bad a person I am - a bad writer, my limitations, my sexism, you know - the thought was, it would be useful as a writer to try to create a template for all the male writers, especially Dominican male writers, especially males of color, of how a writer can use seeing to create more nuanced representations of women. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
To an outsider, I just seem like a list of accomplishments. To me, all there is is how often I fail. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
I'm an immigrant and I will stay an immigrant forever. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Maybe we were together some other time.
I can't think when, I said.
You tried not to look at me. Maybe five million years ago.
People weren't even people back then. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
I think what happened to me was that I was always being taught to look, but one day I started to see. And it was because a lot of women in my life were refusing just to be looked at, to be this passive figure. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Casa Hatüey was named Hatüey because in Times Past it supposedly had been owned by a descendant of the priest who tried to baptize Hatüey right before the Spaniards burned him at the stake. (What Hatüey said on that pyre is a legend in itself: Are there white people in Heaven? Then I'd rather go to Hell.) History, however, has not been kind to Hatüey. Unless somethings changes ASAP he will go out like his camarada Crazy Horse. Coffled to a beer, in a country not his own. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
They say it came from Africa, carried in the screams of the enslaved; that it was the death bane of the Tainos, uttered just as one world perished and another began; that it was a demon drawn into Creation through the nightmare door that was cracked open in the Antilles. Fukú americanus, or more colloquially, fukú - generally a curse or doom of some kind; specifically the Curse and the Doom of the New World.

No matter what its name or provenance, it is believed that the arrival of Europeans on Hispaniola unleashed fukú on the world, and we've all been in the shit ever since. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
We were about to hit the door when she returned, panting, an envelope of cold around her.
Where did you go? I asked.
I went for a walk. She dropped her coat at the door; her face was red from the cold and she was breathing deeply, as if she'd sprinted the last thirty steps.
Where?
Just around the corner.
Why the hell did you do that?
She started to cry, and when Rafa put his hand on her waist, she slapped it away. We went back to our room.
I think she's losing it, I said.
She's just lonely, Rafa said. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
I was in fact pretty much - by the larger culture, by the local culture, by people around me, by people on TV - encouraged to imagine women as something slightly inferior to men. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
If you want to make a human being into a monster, deny them, at the cultural level, any reflection of themselves. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
These days I have to ask myself: What made me angrier? That Oscar, the fat loser, quit, or that Oscar, the fat loser, defied me? And I wonder: What hurt him more? That I was never really his friend, or that I pretended to be? ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Colonial power, patriarchal power, capitalist power must always and everywhere be battled, because they never, ever quit. (Junot Diaz) ~ Carolina De Robertis
Junot Diaz quotes by Carolina De Robertis
These were the early Clinton years but the economy was still sucking an eighties cock ... ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Sometimes you just have to try, even if you know it won't work. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Even I thought I would be a writer who put something out every year. But that's not how it worked out. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
I write very, very slowly, and for me, I have to summon all sorts of resources to make one of these pieces work. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
She should have kept running too but she beelined for home instead. Can you believe it? Like everybody in this damn story, she underestimated the depth of the shit she was in. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
With the sun sliding out of the sky like spit off a wall ... ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Once someone gets a little escape velocity going, ain't no play in the world that will keep them from leaving. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Because I can't seem to escape it. It's a way for me to address and counter my questions about what it means to be human, or, in my case a Dominican human who grew up in New Jersey. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
the only time she looked straight at anything was when she looked out a window. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
I do think that we all draw limits and I feel like part of the work of an artist is it shouldn't be fun. This shouldn't be comfortable. I'm not looking to make people feel unsafe, but I am looking to make people feel uncomfortable. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
There's nothing more true in being a child of a diaspora, a child of immigrants. We're completely new to our parents. We're not something they can ever understand. And it's not as if we are ever going to be accepted. We're accepted as long as we conform to what we are expected to be, and I'm sure that's not any different for anyone else. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
You hear mothers say all the time that they would die for their children, but my mom never said shit like that. She didn't have to. When it came to my brother, it was written across her face in 112-point Tupac Gothic. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
You really want to know what being an X-Man feels like? Just be a smart bookish boy of color in a contemporary U.S. ghetto. Mamma mia! Like having bat wings or a pair of tentacles growing out of your chest. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
People like her got addictive personalities. You don't want to be catching that. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
People are always fascinated by infidelity because, in the end - whether we've had direct experience or not - there's part of you that knows there's absolutely no more piercing betrayal. People are undone by it. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
I know what it means to be moved by a book in my body so much that I go looking for its analog in the real world.
[From an interview with Complex magazine, 12/2012] ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
Hail, Dog of God, was how he welcomed me my first day in Demarest. Took a week before I figured out what the hell he meant. God. Domini. Dog. Canis. Hail, Dominicanis. ~ Junot Diaz
Junot Diaz quotes by Junot Diaz
In order to write the book you want to write, in the end you have to become the person you need to become to write that book. ~ Junot Diaz
