Ocean Vuong
“What were you before you met me?"
"I think I was drowning"
"And what are you now?"
"Water”
Ocean Vuong, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous

Ocean Vuong
“They say nothing lasts forever but they're just scared it will last longer than they can love it.”
Ocean Vuong, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous

Ocean Vuong
“Because the sunset, like survival, exists only on the verge of its own disappearing. To be gorgeous, you must first be seen, but to be seen allows you to be hunted.”
Ocean Vuong, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous

“Why does everyone expect something of me that they don't expect of others? Why should I take what no one else takes, and invite burdens that no one else can bear?"
"I thought you yourself were seeking a burden?"
"I'm seeking a burden?"
"Yes."
"You... saw that?"
"Yes.”
Fyodor Dostoevsky; Translator-Richard Pevear; Translator-Larissa Volokhonsky

Ocean Vuong
“Too much joy, I swear, is lost in our desperation to keep it.”
Ocean Vuong, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous
