Chris Cleave
“We must see all scars as beauty. Okay? This will be our secret. Because take it from me, a scar does not form on the dying. A scar means, 'I survived'.”
Chris Cleave, The Other Hand

Paul Beatty
“Silence can be either protest or consent, but most times it’s fear.”
Paul Beatty, The Sellout

Paul Beatty
“That’s the problem with history, we like to think it’s a book—that we can turn the page and move the fuck on. But history isn’t the paper it’s printed on. It’s memory, and memory is time, emotions, and song. History is the things that stay with you.”
Paul Beatty, The Sellout

Chris Cleave
“I’m telling you, trouble is like the ocean. It covers two thirds of the world.”
Chris Cleave, Little Bee

Judith McNaught
“You can't outwit fate by standing on the sidelines placing little sidebets about the outcome of life. either you wade in and risk everything you have to play the game or you don't play at all. and if u don't play u can't win.”
Judith McNaught, Paradise
