Lisa Taddeo
“We never know how much worse it will be. That's the greatest gift we have in life.”
Lisa Taddeo, Animal

Halle Butler
“You can't ask someone to help you without letting them know you're different than advertised, that you've been thinking and feeling strange things this whole time. That you're uglier, weaker, more annoying, more basic, less interesting than promised. Without letting on that your feelings are easily hurt, and that you are boring, just like everyone else. Once you expose yourself as insecure it's easy to feel resentment if you're not immediately put back at ease.

If there's even a flicker, a tiny recognition of your bad qualities, the resentment kicks in, the deal is broken, and suddenly you're both angry strangers, spending hours alone in a room together and completely unsure why.”
Halle Butler, The New Me

Julia Armfield
“Grief is selfish: we cry for ourselves without the person we have lost far more than we cry for the person - but more than that, we cry because it helps. The grief process is also the coping process and if the grief is frozen in ambiguity, by the constant possibility of reversal, then so is the ability to cope.”
Julia Armfield, Our Wives Under the Sea

Hanya Yanagihara
“Redzi, Džūd, dzīvē ar jaukiem cilvēkiem reizēm noteik kaut kas labs. Neuztraucies, tā nenotiek tik bieži, cik vajadzētu. Tomēr tajās retajās reizēs jaukajiem cilvēkiem vienkārši jāpasaka "paldies" un jādzīco tālāk, un varbūt jāpieļauj iespēja, ka labdarim arī ir prieks, un viņš negrib uzklausīt iemeslus, kāpēc labvēlības pieņēmējs neuzskata, ka ir tās cienīgs un to pelnījis.”
Hanya Yanagihara, A Little Life

Lisa Taddeo
“The problem, she's starting to understand, is that a man will never let you fall completely into hell. He will scoop you right before you drop the final inch, so that you cannot blame him for sending you there. He keeps you in a diner like purgatory instead, waiting and hoping, and taking orders.”
Lisa Taddeo, Three Women
