Claire Dederer
“What do we do with the art of monsters from the past? Look for ourselves there - in the monstrousness. Look for mirrors of what we are, rather than evidence for how wonderful we've become.”
Claire Dederer, Monsters: A Fan's Dilemma

Ed Yong
“Mantis shrimps throw punches like humans throw opinions: frequently, aggressively, and without provocation.”
Ed Yong, An Immense World: How Animal Senses Reveal the Hidden Realms Around Us

Leif Enger
“As enemies go, despair has every ounce of my respect.”
Leif Enger, I Cheerfully Refuse

Claire Dederer
“Consuming a piece of art is two biographies meeting: the biography of the artist that might disrupt the viewing of the art; the biography of the audience member that might shape the viewing of the art. This occurs in every case.”
Claire Dederer, Monsters: A Fan's Dilemma

Jorie Graham
“One day: stronger wind than anyone expected. Stronger than ever before in the recording of such. Unnatural says the news. Also the body says it.”
Jorie Graham, [To] The Last [Be] Human
