I've been slowly making my way through Ulysses, a process that has already taken several years. As I go, I've been writing down my favorite quotes, of which there are many. Here's an updated list:
–Oh, my name for you is the best: Kinch, the knifeblade.
–Lend us a loan of your noserag to wipe my razor.
–The snotgreen sea. The scrotumtightening sea.
–It is a symbol of Irish art. The cracked lookingglass of a servant.
–The Sassenach wants his morning rashers.
–Dedalus, come down, like a good mosey.

Since high school I've maintained a collection of famous quotes. It's the same reason I'm so into photography; when I see something beautiful, I want to hold on to it forever. If it's an image, I take a picture. If it's a beautiful phrase, I write it down.
I've kept this collection on my computer and have only shared it with a few people over the years. I finally decided to put it online. You can thank Ben Jonas and James Joyce.

"All the world before us is a very narrow bridge, and the main thing is not to fear at all."
--Rabbi Nachman of Bratzlav
Found this in the Kol Nidre prayer book and it jumped out at me. If you like it took, here are a few desktop backgrounds so you can take it with you, along with my other Jewish photos (one for Rosh Hashanah and a few for Hanukah).

The backgrounds are only one size and they're meant for a widescreen monitor because that's what I have. If you want something else, just ask.
And Happy Jewish New Year.
