Julia Armfield
“I used to think it was vital to know things, to feel safe in the learning and recounting of facts. I used to think it was possible to know enough to escape from the panic of not knowing, but I realize now that you can never learn enough to protect yourself, not really.”
Julia Armfield, Our Wives Under the Sea

Emily Habeck
“What a privilege it was to mark time with the sun.”
Emily Habeck, Shark Heart

Camonghne Felix
“Time is an anarchy.

There are whole sections of years that have, in my mind, disappeared, time revealing its tricks to me like a cocky necromantic. The gaps are caverns of absence, temporal wormholes, where all I can recall is the sensation of being stretched between many different dimensions of crisis at once.”
Camonghne Felix, Dyscalculia: A Love Story of Epic Miscalculation

Ada Limon
“What is it to be seen in the right way? As who you are? A flash of color, a blur in the crowd, something spectacular but untouchable.”
Ada Limon, The Hurting Kind: Poems

Emily Habeck
“Maybe life has no ceiling, no floors, no walls, and we're free-falling from the moment we're born, lying to each other, agreeing to make invented ideas important, to numb ourselves from the secret."

"What's the secret?"

"Maybe what happens between birth and death isn't as precious as we think.”
Emily Habeck, Shark Heart
