Sharon Creech
“I started thinking about life insurance and how nice it would be if you could get insurance that your life would be happy, and that everyone you knew could be happy, and they could all do what they really wanted to do, and they could all find the people they wanted to find.”
Sharon Creech, The Wanderer

Max Nowaz
“Somebody always had to pay, and he was glad it was not going to be him. Meanwhile he had managed to ruin the perfect marriage by turning Dick into a crayfish and making Rachael think that he had run off with another woman.”
Max Nowaz, Get Rich or Get Lucky

Gabriel García Márquez
“...the invincible power that has moved the world is unrequited, not happy love”
Gabriel García Márquez, Memories of My Melancholy Whores

J.K. Franko
“Yep. God’s giving me a second chance at motherhood as a
“thank you” for killing a bunch of scumbags. He’s looking down and
thinking, “Well done, Susie. You’ll make a fine mommy.”
J.K. Franko, Eye for Eye

Donna Tartt
“To understand the world at all, sometimes you could only focus on a tiny bit of it, look very hard at what was close to hand and make it stand in for the whole; but ever since the painting had vanished from under me I’d felt drowned and extinguished by vastness—not just the predictable vastness of time, and space, but the impassable distances between people even when they were within arm’s reach of each other, and with a swell of vertigo I thought of all the places I’d been and all the places I hadn’t, a world lost and vast and unknowable, dingy maze of cities and alleyways, far-drifting ash and hostile immensities, connections missed, things lost and never found, and my painting swept away on that powerful current and drifting out there somewhere: a tiny fragment of spirit, faint spark bobbing on a dark sea.”
Donna Tartt, The Goldfinch
