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

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

Margaret Atwood
“You can only be jealous of someone who has something you think you ought to have yourself.”
Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid’s Tale

Neil Gaiman
“And did I pass?" The face of the old woman on my right was unreadable in the gathering dusk. On my left the younger woman said, "You don't pass or fail at being a person, dear.”
Neil Gaiman, The Ocean at the End of the Lane

Brandon Sanderson
“It's easy to believe in something when you win all the time...The losses are what define a man's faith.”
Brandon Sanderson, The Well of Ascension
