Irène Némirovsky
“Nel cuore di ogni uomo e di ogni donna resta una specie di Eden dove non ci sono né morte né guerre, dove le belve e le cerbiatte giocano in pace. Si tratta solo di ritrovare quel paradiso, rifiutando di vedere tutto il resto”
Irène Némirovsky, Suite Française

Andri E. Elia
“This was not going to be a peaceful day. No. It was going to be a mess.”
Andri E. Elia, Yildun: Worldmaker of Yand

Tom Robbins
“As a child, I was an imaginary playmate.”
Tom Robbins

Philip Gourevitch
“The dead at Nyarubuye were, I'm afraid, beautiful. There was no getting around it. The skeleton is a beautiful thing. The randomness of the fallen forms, the strange tranquility of their rude exposure, the skull here, the arm bent in some uninterpretable gesture there--these things were beautiful, and their beauty only added to the affront of the place. I couldn't settle on any meaningful response: revulsion, alarm, sorrow, grief, shame, incomprehension, sure, but nothing truly meaningful. I just looked, and I took photographs, because I wondered whether I could really see what I was seeing while I saw it, and I wanted also an excuse to look a bit more closely.”
Philip Gourevitch, We Wish to Inform You That Tomorrow We Will Be Killed with Our Families

Steven Decker
“Edward had used work and accomplishments throughout his life to keep the misery at bay. He’d endured so much heartache in the first eighteen years of life that he’d chosen to run from any further possibility of that happening again. Work was the way he accomplished that.”
Steven Decker, One More Life to Live
