Yaa Gyasi
“The white man’s god is just like the white man. He thinks he is the only god, just like the white man thinks he is the only man. But the only reason he is god instead of Nyame or Chukwu or whoever is because we let him be. We do not fight him. We do not even question him. The white man told us he was this way, and we said yes, but when has the white man ever told us something was good for us and that thing was really good?”
Yaa Gyasi, Homegoing

Jessamine Chan
“They’ve talked about getting matching tattoos. The girls are always casually touching in a way Frida has never done with anyone. She envies women who touch like that.”
Jessamine Chan, The School for Good Mothers

Neel Patel
“Do you know what it's like to have so much love inside you and no one to give it to? To be the vessel of unwanted light? My father said even the sweetest things turn sour if there's no one to consume them. Jewels tarnish. Flowers die. Fruit goes rotten. Love turns to bitterness and hatred and rage.”
Neel Patel, Tell Me How to Be

Yaa Gyasi
“He was attracted to the rage that lit each sentence of their books on fire. He wanted that from his book. An academic rage. All he could seem to muster was a long-winded whine.”
Yaa Gyasi, Homegoing

Caleb Azumah Nelson
“Besides, sometimes, to resolve desire, it's better to let the thing bloom. To feel this thing, to let it catch you unaware, to hold onto the ache. What is better than believing you are heading towards love?”
Caleb Azumah Nelson, Open Water
