Hanya Yanagihara
“It was impossible to explain to the healthy the logic of the sick, and he didn’t have the energy to try.”
Hanya Yanagihara, A Little Life

Hanya Yanagihara
“That night, once he was alone, he cried as well: not because of what he had done but because he hadn't been successful, because he had lived after all.”
Hanya Yanagihara, A Little Life

Hanya Yanagihara
“He was never able to explain what the cutting did for him in a way he'd understand: how it was a form of punishment and also of cleansing, how if allowed him to drain everything toxic and spoiled from himself, how it kept him from being irrationally angry at others, at everyone, how it kept him from shouting, from violence, how it made him feel like his body, his life, was truly his and no one else's.”
Hanya Yanagihara, A Little Life

“But what Andy never understood about him was this: he was an optimist. Every month, every week, he chose to open his eyes, to live another day in the world. He did it when he was feeling so awful that sometimes the pain seemed to transport him to another state, one in which everything, even the past that he worked so hard to forget, seemed to fade into a gray watercolor wash. He did it when his memories crowded out all other thoughts, when it took real effort, real concentration, to tether himself to his current life, to keep himself from raging with despair and shame. He did it when he was so exhausted of trying, when being awake and alive demanded such energy that he had to lie in bed thinking of reasons to get up and try again,”
Hanya Yanagihara, A Little Life

Hanya Yanagihara
“He will experience that prickle, that shiver of disgust that afflicts him in both his happiest and most wretched moments, the one that asks him who he thinks he is to inconvenience so many people, to think he has the right to keep going when even his own body tells him he should stop.”
Hanya Yanagihara, A Little Life
