Susanna Clarke
“For the rest of the night he sat by himself under the elm-tree. Until this moment it had never seemed to him that his magicianship set him apart from other men. But now he had glimpsed the wrong side of something. He had the eeriest feeling - as if the world were growing older around him, and the best part of existence - laughter, love and innocence - were slipping irrevocably into the past.”
Susanna Clarke, Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell

V (formerly Eve Ensler)
“Non c'è dolore inflitto coscientemente a qualcuno che non ci torni indietro decuplicato”
Eve Ensler, The Apology

Larada Horner-Miller
“When I was four or five years old, my mom made me a beautiful white dress with red embroidery on the top for Christmas. I remember her laboring over it because sewing didn’t come naturally to her. I tried it on, and the gathered waistline with the fitted bodice just didn’t please her. It didn’t lie the way it should, so she ripped it out several times.”
Larada Horner-Miller

Raz Mihal
“Is there only one reality or more realities than the mind can imagine?”
Raz Mihal, Just Love Her

“Deciding to wait, Scott sat down with a pint away from the bar at a corner table and lit a cigarette. The clientele in there on Sunday afternoon were the same as most other afternoons. From middle-aged to old men, drinking and cursing at the world like it was the last bus which had just left the stop without them.”
R.D. Ronald, The Elephant Tree
