Christina Baker Kline
“Something in his manner makes me want to confide things to him I've never told anyone. Even painful things, shameful things. I didn't know how badly I wanted to share them.”
Christina Baker Kline, A Piece of the World

Philip Roth
“The music I play after dinner is not a relief from the silence but something like its substantiation: listening to music for an hour or two every evening doesn’t deprive me of the silence — the music is the silence coming true.”
Philip Roth, The Human Stain

Christina Baker Kline
“That man would have chipped away at your heart bit by bit until there was nothing left. It may have been bruised, but at least it's whole.”
Christina Baker Kline, A Piece of the World

John Boyne
“Maybe there were no villains in my mother’s story at all. Just men and women, trying to do their best by each other. And failing.”
John Boyne, The Heart's Invisible Furies

John Boyne
“Every man is afraid of women as far as I can see,” said Julian, displaying an understanding of the universe far beyond his years. “That’s true,” she said. “But only because most men are not as smart as women and yet they continue to hold all the power. They fear a change of the world order.”
John Boyne, The Heart's Invisible Furies
