“She could get more information across with an eyebrow than other people could with a microphone.”
Ann Patchett, Tom Lake

Sally Rooney
“Maybe we're just born to love and worry about the people we know, and to go on loving and worrying even when there are more important things we should be doing. And if that means the human species is going to die out, isn't it in a way a nice reason to die out, the nicest reason you can imagine? Because when we should have been reorganising the distribution of the world's resources and transitioning collectively to a sustainable economic model, we were worrying about sex and friendship instead. Because we loved each other too much and found each other too interesting. And I love that about humanity, and in fact it's the very reason I root for us to survive - because we are so stupid about each other.”
Sally Rooney, Beautiful World, Where Are You

Min Jin Lee
“The unholy trinity of law, business, and medicine seemed the only faith in town.”
Min Jin Lee, Free Food for Millionaires

Elif Batuman
“Was that what was so painful: that nobody had ever come so close to me- nobody had ever seen me, and come right up to me, and kept going, and looked into my eyes so seriously, with so little fear?”
Elif Batuman, Either/Or

Isabel Allende
“Nothing can grow in the shade of secrets, she would say, love needs light and space to flourish.”
Isabel Allende, A Long Petal of the Sea
