"Chapter 6 (What it's like to be an Internalizer) was painful to get through lmao. Just absolutely coddling and victimizing the reader while villainizing everyone else. Hoping the next chapter actually provides some sort of useful tools but my opinion of this book is plummeting lol." Jan 26, 2026 12:02PM

“A moth was a caterpillar, once, but it no longer is a caterpillar. It cannot break itself back down, cannot metamorphose in reverse. To try to eat leaves again would mean starvation. Crawling back into the husk would provide no shelter. It is a paradox -- the impossibility of reclaiming that which lies behind, housed within a form comprised entirely of the repurposed pieces of that same past. We exist where we begin, yet to remain there is death... I could not have predicted each version of me that I shifted into, but through my history, one constant has always remained true: change itself... I did not know who she was, the one waiting for me to start moving toward her. I was curious about her, all the same. I was eager to meet her.”
Becky Chambers, To Be Taught, If Fortunate

H.P. Lovecraft
“Johansen, thank God, did not know quite all, even though he saw the city and the Thing, but I shall never sleep calmly again when I think of the horrors that lurk ceaselessly behind life in time and in space, and of those unhallowed blasphemies from elder stars which dream beneath the sea, known and favoured by a nightmare cult ready and eager to loose them upon the world whenever another earthquake shall heave their monstrous stone city again to the sun and air.”
H.P. Lovecraft

Franz Kafka
“Was he an animal, that music could move him so? He felt as if the way to the unknown nourishment he longed for were coming to light.”
Franz Kafka, Metamorphosis

“If I ask what I'm asking only of people who agree with me at the outset, with whom I already share a dream and a language, then there's no point in asking at all.”
Becky Chambers, To Be Taught, If Fortunate

H.P. Lovecraft
“Death would be a boon if only it could blot out the memories.”
H.P. Lovecraft
