Julia Armfield
“The deep sea is a haunted house: a place in which things that ought not to exist move about in the darkness.”
Julia Armfield, Our Wives Under the Sea

Elif Shafak
“People assume it’s a matter of personality, the difference between optimists and pessimists. But I believe it all comes down to an inability to forget. The greater your powers of retention, the slimmer your chances at optimism.”
Elif Shafak, The Island of Missing Trees

Julia Armfield
“My heart is a thin thing, these days - shred of paper blown between the spaces in my ribs.”
Julia Armfield, Our Wives Under the Sea

“Social media, by bombarding users with fast-moving social stimuli, pushed them to rely on quick-twitch social intuition over deliberative reason. All people contain the capacity for both, as well as the potential for the former to overwhelm the latter, which is often how misinformation spreads. And platforms compound the effect by framing all news and information within high-stakes social contexts.”
Max Fisher, The Chaos Machine: The Inside Story of How Social Media Rewired Our Minds and Our World

Johann Hari
“What, I wondered, is the message buried in the medium of the printed book? Before the words convey their specific meaning, the medium of the book tells us several things. Firstly, life is complex, and if you want to understand it, you have to set aside a fair bit of time to think deeply about it. You need to slow down. Secondly, there is a value in leaving behind your other concerns and narrowing down your attention to one thing, sentence after sentence, page after page. Thirdly, it is worth thinking deeply about how other people live and how their minds work. They have complex inner lives just like you.”
Johann Hari, Stolen Focus: Why You Can't Pay Attention— and How to Think Deeply Again
