“There are no beautiful surfaces without a terrible depth.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche

“What should I do about the wild and the tame? The wild heart that wants to be free, and the tame heart that wants to come home. I want to be held. I don't want you to come too close. I want you to scoop me up and bring me home at nights. I don't want to tell you where I am. I want to keep a place among the rocks where no one can find me. I want to be with you.”
― Jeanette Winterson

“Autobiography is not important. Authenticity is important. The writer must fire herself through the text, be the molten stuff that welds together disparate elements. I believe there is always exposure, vulnerability, in the writing process, which is not to say it is either confessional or memoir. Simply, it is real.”
― Jeanette Winterson, Weight: The Myth of Atlas and Heracles

“You see, one loves the sunset when one is so sad.”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince
