Rebecca Solnit
“The blue of distance comes with time, with the discovery of melancholy, of loss, the texture of longing, of the complexity of the terrain we traverse, and with the years of travel.”
Rebecca Solnit, A Field Guide to Getting Lost

Felicia Day
“I know I shouldn’t introduce my own memoir with this amount of insecurity, but my personal life philosophy is always to assume the worst, then you’re never disappointed. BAM! Highlight that previous sentence, baby!”
Felicia Day, You're Never Weird on the Internet

Mark Epstein
“We look to the accumulation of sensory pleasures to give our lives meaning. We have the ability now to consume anything we want and this capacity far exceeds our actual needs. With so much at our fingertips, a kind of gluttony pervades our mind-sets.”
Mark Epstein

Mark Epstein
“The picture we present to ourselves of who we think we ought to be obscures who we really are.”
Mark Epstein, The Trauma of Everyday Life

Rebecca Solnit
“How long does it take to see something, to know someone? If you put in years, you realize how little you grasped at the start, even when you thought you knew. We move through life mostly not seeing what is around us, not knowing who is around us, not understanding the forces at play, not understanding ourselves. Unless we stay with it, and maybe this is a movie about staying with it.”
Rebecca Solnit, The Mother of All Questions
