Ocean Vuong
“If we are lucky, the end of the sentence is where we might begin. If we are lucky, something is passed on, another alphabet written in the blood, sinew, and neuron; ancestors charging their kin with the silent propulsion to fly south, to turn toward the place in the narrative no one was meant to outlast.”
Ocean Vuong, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous

Sappho
“may you sleep on the breast of your delicate friend”
Sappho, If Not, Winter: Fragments of Sappho

Max Gladstone
“I have observed friendships as one observes high holy days: breathtakingly short, whirlwinds of intimate behavior, frenzied carousing, the sharing of food, of wine, of honey. Compressed, always, and gone as soon as they come.”
Max Gladstone, This Is How You Lose the Time War

Ocean Vuong
“That was the day I learned how dangerous a color can be. That a boy could be knocked off that shade and made to reckon his trespass. Even if color is nothing but what the light reveals, that nothing has laws, and a boy on a pink bike must learn, above all else, the law of gravity.”
Ocean Vuong, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous

“Even poetry, which breaks language into meaning--poetry ossifies, in time, the way trees do. What's supple, whipping, soft, and fresh grows hard, grows armor.”
Amal El-Mohtar, This Is How You Lose the Time War
