“I know what you are learning to endure. There is nothing to be done. Make sure nothing is wasted. Take notes. Remember it all, every insult, every tear. Tattoo it on the inside of your mind. In life, knowledge of poisons is essential. I've told you, nobody becomes an artist unless they have to.”
― Janet Fitch, White Oleander

“You said you're going far away," Tamaru said. "How far away are we talking about?"

― Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath
