“That's just what translation is, I think. That's all speaking is. Listening to the other and trying to see past your own biases to glimpse what they're trying to say. Showing yourself to the world, and hoping someone else understands.”

“Stories are both an escape from the truths of the world and the only way to see them clearly.”
― Axie Oh, The Girl Who Fell Beneath the Sea
