Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar

Joan Didion
“Everything goes. I am working very hard at not thinking about how everything goes.”
Joan Didion, Play It As It Lays

Elizabeth Gilbert
“You must learn in life to take things more lightly, my dear. The world is always changing. Learn how to allow for it.”
Elizabeth Gilbert, City of Girls

Elena Ferrante
“she was explaining to me that I had won nothing, that in the world there is nothing to win, that her life was full of varied and foolish adventures as much as mine, and that time simply slipped away without any meaning, and it was good just to see each other every so often to hear the mad sound of the brain of one echo in the mad sound of the brain of the other.”
Elena Ferrante, The Story of a New Name

Kazuo Ishiguro
“What I'm not sure about, is if our lives have been so different from the lives of the people we save. We all complete. Maybe none of us really understand what we've lived through, or feel we've had enough time.”
Kazuo Ishiguro, Never Let Me Go
