Jeffrey Eugenides
“She wanted a book to take her places she couldn't get to herself.”
― Jeffrey Eugenides, The Marriage Plot

John Cheever
“I've been homesick for countries I've never been, and longed to be where I couldn't be.”
― John Cheever

Zadie Smith
“I am the sole author of the dictionary that defines me.”
― Zadie Smith, NW

Virginia Woolf
“I enjoy almost everything. Yet I have some restless searcher in me. Why is there not a discovery in life? Something one can lay hands on and say “This is it”? My depression is a harassed feeling. I’m looking: but that’s not it — that’s not it. What is it? And shall I die before I find it?”
― Virginia Woolf, A Writer's Diary

Zadie Smith
“Not everyone wants this conventional little life you’re rowing your boat toward. I like my river of fire. And when it’s time for me to go I fully intend to roll off my one-person dinghy into the flames and be consumed. I'm not afraid.”
― Zadie Smith, NW
