Arthur Golden
“I went back to those graves not long afterward and found as I stood there that sadness was a very heavy thing. My body weighed twice what it had only a moment earlier, as if those graves were pulling me down toward them.”
Arthur Golden, Memoirs of a Geisha

William Shakespeare
“What if this cursed hand were thicker than itself with brother's blood,
Is there not rain enough in the sweet heavens to wash it white as snow?”
William Shakespeare, Hamlet

Peter Ames Carlin
“They haven't made a drug that can touch this pain," Clarence said. "I feel like I'm made of pain.”
Peter Ames Carlin, Bruce

Arthur Golden
“After this, I couldn't hear their voices any longer; for in my ears I heard a sound like a bird's wings flapping in panic. Perhaps it was my heart, I don't know. But if you've ever seen a bird trapped inside the great hall of a temple, looking for some way out, well, that was how my mind was reacting. It had never occurred to me that my mother wouldn't simply go on being sick. I won't say I'd never wondered what might happen if she should die; I did wonder about it, in the same way I wondered what might happen if our house were swallowed up in an earthquake. There could hardly be life after such an event.”
Arthur Golden, Memoirs of a Geisha

John Green
“As he read, I fell in love the way you fall asleep: slowly, and then all at once.”
John Green, The Fault in Our Stars
