Margaret Atwood
“Madness is only an amplification of what you already are.”
Margaret Atwood, Surfacing

Albert Camus
“Everything is true, and nothing is true!”
Albert Camus, The Stranger

Hanif Kureishi
“He died at the wrong time, when there was much to be clarified and established. They hadn’t even started to be grown-ups together. There was this piece of heaven, this little girl he’d carried around the shop on his shoulders; and then one day she was gone, replaced by a foreigner, an uncooperative woman he didn’t know how to speak to. Being so confused, so weak, so in love, he chose strength and drove her away from himself. The last years he spent wondering where she’d gone, and slowly came to realise that she would never return, and that the husband he’d chosen for her was an idiot.”
Hanif Kureishi, The Buddha of Suburbia

Hanif Kureishi
“Everything has become very conventional. You're either in or you're out. I'm with the out- with the weird, the impossible, the victimised and the broken. It's the only place to be.”
Hanif Kureishi, Midnight all Day

Hanif Kureishi
“I can only think how good life on earth can be, at times. What grief two people can give to one another! And what pleasure!”
Hanif Kureishi, Intimacy
