We all know how loving ends. But I want to fall in love with the world anyway, to let it crack me open. I want to feel what there is to feel while I am here.

“That’s the trouble with people, their root problem. Life runs alongside them, unseen. Right here, right next.”
Richard Powers, The Overstory

Elif Shafak
“A map is a two-dimensional representation with arbitrary symbols and incised lines that decide who is to be our enemy and who is to be our friend, who deserves our love and who deserves our hatred and who, our sheer indifference. Cartography is another name for stories told by winners.”
Elif Shafak, The Island of Missing Trees

Marjan Kamali
“Ocean waves begin their journey thousands of miles out at sea. Their form”
Marjan Kamali, The Lion Women of Tehran

Daniel Nayeri
“If you listen, I’ll tell you a story. We can know and be known to each other, and then we’re not enemies anymore.”
Daniel Nayeri, Everything Sad Is Untrue

John  Green
“We all know how loving ends. But I want to fall in love with the world anyway, to let it crack me open. I want to feel what there is to feel while I am here.”
