Evelyn Waugh
“These memories, which are my life--for we possess nothing certainly except the past--were always with me.”
Evelyn Waugh, Brideshead Revisited

Clarice Lispector
“So long as I have questions to which there are no answers, I shall go on writing.”
Clarice Lispector, The Hour of the Star

Virginia Woolf
“I am reading six books at once, the only way of reading; since, as you will agree, one book is only a single unaccompanied note, and to get the full sound, one needs ten others at the same time.”

“To close read is to linger, to dally, to take pleasure in tarrying, and to hold out that these activities can allow us to look both hard and askance at the norm.”
Elizabeth Freeman, Time Binds: Queer Temporalities, Queer Histories
