Ali Smith
“An idiolect. That’s what he is, a language no one else alive in the world speaks. He is the last living speaker of himself. He’s been too blithe, he’d forgotten for a whole train journey, for almost a whole day, that he himself is dead as a disappeared grammar, a graveyard scatter of phonemes and morphemes.”
Ali Smith, Winter

Ali Smith
“He thinks about how, whatever being alive is, with all its pasts and presents and futures, it is most itself in the moments when you surface from a depth of numbness or forgetfulness that you didn't even know you were at, and break the surface.”
Ali Smith, Winter

Ocean Vuong
“They say nothing lasts forever but they're just scared it will last longer than they can love it.”
Ocean Vuong, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous

Ali Smith
“We all mine and undermine and landmine ourselves, in our own ways, in our own time, Sophia thinks.”
Ali Smith, Winter

Ocean Vuong
“Sometimes being offered tenderness feels like the very proof that you've been ruined.”
