― Colson Whitehead, The Underground Railroad

“Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.”

“If after I am free a friend of mine gave a feast, and did not invite me to it, I should not mind a bit. I can be perfectly happy by myself. With freedom, flowers, books, and the moon, who could not be perfectly happy?”
