Maggie Nelson
“Last night I wept in a way I haven’t wept for some time. I wept until I aged myself. I watched it happen in the mirror. I watched the lines arrive around my eyes like engraved sunbursts; it was like watching flowers open in time-lapse on a windowsill. The tears not only aged my face, they also changed its texture, turned the skin of my cheeks into putty. I recognized this as a rite of decadence, but I did not know how to stop it.”
Maggie Nelson, Bluets

“Death doesn't discriminate between the sinners and the saints, it takes and it takes and it takes, and we keep living anyway....”
Lin-Manuel Miranda

Mary Wollstonecraft
“Birth, riches, and every extrinsic advantage that exalt a man above his fellows, without any mental exertion, sink him in reality below them. In proportion to this weakness, he is played upon by designing men, till the bloated monster has lost all traces of humanity.”
Mary Wollstonecraft, A Vindication of the Rights of Woman

Pindar
“But in one short span of time winds quickly shift direction,   veering back and forth.”
Pindar, The Complete Odes

Hannah Arendt
“Good can be radical; evil can never be radical, it can only be extreme, for it possesses neither depth nor any demonic dimension yet--and this is its horror--it can spread like a fungus over the surface of the earth and lay waste the entire world. Evil comes from a failure to think.”
Hannah Arendt, Eichmann in Jerusalem: A Report on the Banality of Evil
