Travis Luedke, The Nightlife: Las Vegas“I have people in my life, of course. Some write; some don't. Some read; some don't. Some stare vacantly into space when I talk the geeky talk and walk the geeky walk, but they make killer chocolate chip pancakes and so all is forgiven.”
Rob Thurman“There is no night life in Spain. They stay up late but they get up late. That is not night life. That is delaying the day. Night life is when you get up with a hangover in the morning.

Night life comes out of a bottle and goes into a jar. If you think how much are the drinks it is not night life.”
Ernest Hemingway, 88 Poems“Bulgaria, I reflected as I walked back to the hotel, isn’t a country; it’s a near-death experience.”
Bill Bryson, Neither Here nor There: Travels in Europe
