Do you generally care more about the plot or the characters?

Pick a quote
When two people meet, each one is changed by the other so you’ve got two new people.”
I was born lost and take no pleasure in being found.”
"And now that you don’t have to be perfect, you can be good."
"And the little screaming fact that sounds through all history: repression works only to strengthen and knit the repressed."
“Two generations of Americans knew more about the Ford coil than the clitoris, about the planetary system of gears that the solar system of stars.”
The good story lay in half-told things which must be filled in out of the hearer’s own experience.”
Try to understand men, if you understand each other you will be kind to each other. Knowing a man well never leads to hate and nearly always leads to love.”

Short; I don't have the attention span
Long; there is more content in them to savour
