Anne Carson
“A stranger is someone who sits very still at the kitchen table, looks down at his knuckles, thinks some day we will laugh about this, doesn't believe it.”
Anne Carson, Glass, Irony and God

Anne Carson
“Perhaps the hardest thing about losing a lover is to watch the year repeat its days. It is as if I could dip my hands down into time and scoop up blue and green lozenges of April heat a year ago in another country.”
Anne Carson, The Glass Essay

Elif Batuman
“I was overcome by a sense of how much more there was in his life than in mine, by the things to do and distances to travel, while I never had done anything or gone anywhere, and never would.”
Elif Batuman, The Idiot

Elif Batuman
“It felt ominous to me - the aestheticized girliness, infatuation and weakness.”
Elif Batuman, The Idiot

“Being a young girl is always a cute trick. It leaves nothing to be desired and it is easy. I feel as though becoming a woman is like a long tradition of going through things and coming out strong, but I am tired and weary!”
Marlowe Granados, Happy Hour
