Ian McEwan
“This is how the entire course of a life can be changed: by doing nothing.”
― Ian McEwan, On Chesil Beach
tags: life

Dimitri Verhulst
“… En ook’, ging hij verder: ‘ik had er behoefte aan om nog eens alleen te zijn met mezelf. Buiten dit tehuis ligt een wereld waarin je niets anders moet doen dan praten. Praten, praten, praten en nog eens praten. En luisteren of op z’n minst toch doen alsof, naar mensen die praten, praten, praten. En die kriskras door elkaar heen praten, praten, praten. Je hebt familiale en andere verplichtingen, wat vaak weer neerkomt op praten en luisteren, en ik had er gewoon geen zin meer in, in die hele sociale pantomime. Ik wou eindelijk stilte voor mezelf en alleen zijn met mijn gedachten. Hier kan ik dat min of meer. Het is de enige plaats waar wordt geaccepteerd dat ik volledig in mezelf ben gekeerd. Het was mijn laatste kans.”
― Dimitri Verhulst, De laatkomer

Yaa Gyasi
“The need to call this thing “good” and this thing “bad,” this thing “white” and this thing “black,” was an impulse that Effia did not understand. In her village, everything was everything. Everything bore the weight of everything else.”
― Yaa Gyasi, Homegoing

Yaa Gyasi
“You want to know what weakness is? Weakness is treating someone as though they belong to you. Strength is knowing that everyone belongs to themselves.”
― Yaa Gyasi, Homegoing

Lucy Powrie
“It is a truth universally acknowledged that any book lover in want of a good book will always find one in a library.”
― Lucy Powrie, The Paper & Hearts Society
