Alice Winn
“My dearest, darling Sidney,' There was nothing else. Only dead white paper, blank and meaningless. A comma, followed by nothing. Death summed up by grammar.”
Alice Winn, In Memoriam

“We sway and disappear in each other's arms, and "So Far Away" starts crooning through the speakers, and for one moment in time,
two lonely astronauts floating in space
finally find each other.”
James Brandon, Ziggy, Stardust and Me

“I’m not crazy for feeling this way. They’re crazy for trying to stop me. And if it’s the last time I ever get to feel joy again, I won’t let them have it.”
James Brandon, Ziggy, Stardust and Me

Alice Winn
“Ellwood smiled, and a sudden, dry bleakness spread over Gaunt’s heart as he thought of Hercules, and Hector, and all the heroes in myth who found happiness briefly, only for it not to be the end of the story.”
Alice Winn, In Memoriam

Ocean Vuong
“Because to remember is to fill the present with the past, which meant that the cost of remembering anything, anything at all, is life itself. We murder ourselves, he thought, by remembering”
Ocean Vuong, The Emperor of Gladness
