“The future, she thought, could not be predicted, and the shpae of things could not be divined. To think otherwise was absurd. But they were young that morning, and they could cling to hope. Hope that the world could be remade, kinder and sweeter.”
― Silvia Moreno-Garcia, Mexican Gothic

“There is no fixing. There is only moving forward in the brokenness.”
― Erin Morgenstern, The Starless Sea

“So I'll be wed in the Church of the Holy Incestuous Mushroom?”
― Silvia Moreno-Garcia, Mexican Gothic

“She wanted to be liked. Perhaps this explained the parties, the crystalline laughter, the well-coiffed hair, the rehearsed smile. She thought that men such as her father could be stern and men could be cold like Virgil, but women needed to be liked or they’d be in trouble. A woman who is not liked is a bitch, and a bitch can hardly do anything: all avenues are closed to her.”
― Silvia Moreno-Garcia, Mexican Gothic
