Ursula K. Le Guin
“A child free from the guilt of ownership and the burden of economic competition will grow up with the will to do what needs doing and the capacity for joy in doing it. It is useless work that darkens the heart. The delight of the nursing mother, of the scholar, of the successful hunter, of the good cook, of the skilful maker, of anyone doing needed work and doing it well, - this durable joy is perhaps the deepest source of human affection and of sociality as a whole.”
Ursula K. Le Guin, The Dispossessed: An Ambiguous Utopia

Margaret Atwood
“Truly amazing, what people can get used to, as long as there are a few compensations.”
Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid’s Tale

N.K. Jemisin
“I think,” Hoa says slowly, “that if you love someone, you don’t get to choose how they love you back.”
N.K. Jemisin, The Stone Sky

Shirley Jackson
“Journeys end in lovers meeting; I have spent an all but sleepless night, I have told lies and made a fool of myself, and the very air tastes like wine.”
Shirley Jackson, The Haunting of Hill House

Shirley Jackson
“Don't do it, Eleanor told the little girl; insist on your cup
of stars; once they have trapped you into being like everyone
else you will never see your cup of stars again”
Shirley Jackson, The Haunting of Hill House
