“Scott glanced at his watch but didn't register what it said. The notion of time had become as absurd as the quietly glowing trees.”
R.D. Ronald, The Elephant Tree

Malorie Blackman

Malorie Blackman, Checkmate

Sara Pascoe
“Love is described like GOD.”
Sara Pascoe

“There are so many different forms of silence: the silence that tyrannical states force on their citizens, stealing their memories, rewriting their histories, and imposing on them a state-sanctioned identity. Or the silence of witnesses who choose to ignore or not speak the truth, and of victims who at times become complicit in the crimes committed against them. Then there are the silences we indulge in about ourselves, our personal mythologies, the stories we impose upon our real lives.”
Azar Nafisi, Things I've Been Silent About

Edmond Rostand
“Stale words, what are they worth?
A moment comes and God help those for whom it never comes.
When love of such nobility possesses this shaking frame
That even the sweetest word, the ultimate honey, stings like vinegar.”
Edmond Rostand, Cyrano de Bergerac
