Akwaeke Emezi
“Why should I be afraid? I am the source of the spring.”
― Akwaeke Emezi, Freshwater

Akwaeke Emezi
“I had surrendered and the reward was that I knew myself”
― Akwaeke Emezi, Freshwater

Akwaeke Emezi
“When you have been living in a great shadow, it hurts to look at the light, to be awake, to feel.”
― Akwaeke Emezi, Freshwater

Caleb Azumah Nelson
“You came here to speak of what is means to love your best friend. Ask: if flexing is being able to say the most in the fewest number of words, is there a greater flex than love? Nowhere to hide, nowhere to go, a direct gaze.”
― Caleb Azumah Nelson, Open Water

“There comes a time when you have to stop being who you were, when you have to let it go if you're going to keep moving, if you're going to survive, because the past doesn't need a future. It has no use for what comes next. The past is greedy, always swallowing you up, always taking. If you don't hold it back, if you don't dam it up, it will spread and take and drown.

The past is not a receding horizon. Rather, it advances one moment at a time, marching steadily forward until it has claimed everything and we become again who we were; we become ghosts when the past cates us. You can't live as long as your past does. It's one or the other.”
― Brandon Taylor
