Elena Ferrante
“I feel ugly, like I’m a bad person, and yet I’d like to be loved.”
Elena Ferrante, The Lying Life of Adults

Domenico Starnone
“But becoming an adult—I told myself—means giving up, in fact, on perfection.”
Domenico Starnone, Trust: A Novel

Sally Rooney
“When I look back at those years, I feel touched and almost pained by the simplicity of the life I was living, because I knew what I had to do, and I did it, that was all.”
Sally Rooney, Beautiful World, Where Are You

Domenico Starnone
“I’d said there’s nothing human that can’t be traced back to a growl, an argh, an ooh ooh ooh: all of it, even poetry, even the broken gates of dawn, even the suns that strike the eyelashes, was composed of growls.”
Domenico Starnone, Trust

Sally Rooney
“Maybe we're just born to love and worry about the people we know, and to go on loving and worrying even when there are more important things we should be doing. And if that means the human species is going to die out, isn't it in a way a nice reason to die out, the nicest reason you can imagine? Because when we should have been reorganising the distribution of the world's resources and transitioning collectively to a sustainable economic model, we were worrying about sex and friendship instead. Because we loved each other too much and found each other too interesting. And I love that about humanity, and in fact it's the very reason I root for us to survive - because we are so stupid about each other.”
Sally Rooney, Beautiful World, Where Are You
