Pankaj Mishra
“... for the weak and the ineffectual, who cannot rise to the dignity and nobility of tragedy, or the luxury of irony, for whom even ordinary acts of will are impossible, melodrama is a substitute. People deprived of the capacity to change their fate can only repetitively lament this fact, and since they belong to the vast majority of the world's population, melodrama should be taken seriously for its world-historical impact.”
Pankaj Mishra, Run and Hide

Parini Shroff
“Women were built to endure the rules men make.”
Parini Shroff, The Bandit Queens

Hernan Diaz
“Most of us prefer to believe we are the active subjects of our victories but only the passive objects of our defeats. We triumph, but it is not really we who fail - we are ruined by forces beyond our control.”
Hernan Diaz, Trust

Evan Puschak
“It is an exhilarating and terrifying experience to walk the road of your ignorance. Learning, you learn, is not really a process of expanding your mind, but of watching it shrink against all there is to know.”
Evan Puschak, Escape into Meaning: Essays on Superman, Public Benches, and Other Obsessions

Yiyun Li
“Being a mother must be the saddest yet most hopeful thing in the world, falling into a love that, once started, would never end.”
Yiyun Li, A Thousand Years of Good Prayers
