Arundhati Roy
“When it came to me, Mrs Roy taught me how to think, then raged against my thoughts. She taught me to be free and raged against my freedom. She taught me to write and resented the author I became”
Arundhati Roy, Mother Mary Comes to Me

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
“If you don't understand, ask questions. If you're uncomfortable about asking questions, say you are uncomfortable about asking questions and then ask anyway. It's easy to tell when a question is coming from a good place. Then listen some more. Sometimes people just want to feel heard. Here's to possibilities of friendship and connection and understanding.”
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Americanah

Frida Kahlo
“At the end of the day, we can endure much more than we think we can.”
Frida Kahlo

David Hockney
“I think I’m greedy, but I’m not greedy for money - I think that can be a burden - I’m greedy for an exciting life.”
David Hockney

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
“I'm chasing you. I'm going to chase you until you give this a chance.”
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Americanah
