Lyudmila Ulitskaya
“...Милая моя жена! Ошибка в Библии - не из ребра Адама сотворена была Ева, а из сердца вырезана. Я физически чуствую это место в сердце.”
Lyudmila Ulitskaya, Лестница Якова

Magda Szabó
“It was the voice of someone emerging from anesthesia, speaking with the exaggerated precision of a wondering mind striving for clarity.”
Magda Szabó, The Door

Sarah Moss
“I shivered. Of course, that was the whole point of the re-enactment, that we ourselves became the ghosts, learning to walk the land as they walked it two thousand years ago, to tend our fire as they tended theirs and hope that some of their thoughts, their way of understanding the world, would follow the dance of muscle and bone. To do it properly, I thought, we would almost have to absent ourselves from ourselves, leaving our actions, our re-enactions, to those no longer there. Who are the ghosts again, us or our dead? Maybe they imagined us first, maybe we were conjured out of the deep past by other minds.”
Sarah Moss, Ghost Wall

Margaret Wilkerson Sexton
“Now, hate,” she started, “ain’t no use in hate, Josie. Ain’t no use in hate,” she repeated. “Whatever you trying to get away from, hate just binds you to it. You find, even when you think you found a way out, God will bring it back to you, slap you right in the face with it. Where you thought it had gone missing. So don’t ever say hate.”
Margaret Wilkerson Sexton, The Revisioners

“This is the only advice I can offer. Each time something like this happens, take a breath and ask yourself, honestly: Am I dead? Did I die? Is the world different? Has my soul splintered into a thousand shards and scattered to the winds? I think you’ll find, in nearly every case, that you are fine. Life rolls on. No one cares. Very few things—apart from death and crime—have real, irreversible stakes, and when something with real stakes happens, humiliation is the least of your worries.”
Lindy West, Shrill: Notes from a Loud Woman
