John Updike Much Quotations

Sex is like money; only too much is enough.

Life, too much of it, and not enough. The fear that it will end some day, and the fear that tomorrow will be the same as yesterday.

So much love, too much love, it is our madness, it is rotting us out, exploding us like dandelion polls.

History. The more of it you have the more you have to live it. After a little while there gets to be too much of it to memorize and maybe that's when empires start to decline.

Affairs, ... , like everything else, ask too much.
