Oscar Wilde
“To regret one’s own experiences is to arrest one’s own development. To deny one’s own experiences is to put a lie into the lips of one’s own life. It is no less than a denial of the soul.”
Oscar Wilde, De Profundis

Joan Didion
“I am what I am. To look for reasons is beside the point.”
Joan Didion, Play It As It Lays

James Baldwin
“I loved her as much as ever and I still did not know how much that was.”
James Baldwin, Giovanni’s Room

Joan Didion
“Marriage is memory, marriage is time. Marriage is not only time: it is also, parodoxically, the denial of time.”
Joan Didion, The Year of Magical Thinking

James Baldwin
“Somebody" said Jacques, "your father or mine, should have told us that not many people have ever died of love. But multitudes have perished, and are perishing every hour--and in the oddest places!--for the lack of it.”
James Baldwin, Giovanni’s Room
