“That boy knows a lot”
Eowyn Ivey, The Snow Child

Jennifer Longo
“As far as I could tell, this movie was about parents who had two cute children they were determined to spend as little time with as possible. And so they hire a woman who constantly gaslights the kids and makes them doubt their own sanity; she takes them on fantastical trips, then says they never happened. She gives them the powers of flight and time travel, encourages them to surrender to the magic and enjoy themselves, then acts all affronted and accuses them of lying when they mention how fun the adventure was. The whole movie seemed to be introducing the concept of what a nanny was and, at the same time, arguing against ever employing one.”
Jennifer Longo, What I Carry

George Saunders
“What I mean to say is, we had been considerable. Had been loved. Not lonely, not lost, not freakish, but wise, each in his or her own way. Our departures caused pain. Those who had loved us sat upon their beds, heads in hand; lowered their faces to tabletops, making animal noises. We had been loved, I say, and remembering us, even many years later, people would smile, briefly gladdened at the memory.”
George Saunders, Lincoln in the Bardo

“No one who has ever done anything worth doing has gone uncriticized.”

“Worst of all, some sixth graders hadn’t started wearing deodorant yet, and they really needed it.”
