Isabel Allende
“I especially like your autumn trees, gracefully letting their leaves fall. That is how I would like to shed my own leaves in this autumn of life, easily and elegantly. Why be so attached to what we are bound to lose anyway? I suppose I mean youth, which has been so present in our conversations.”
Isabel Allende, The Japanese Lover

Fleur Jaeggy
“I am familiar with the impatience we feel when forced to suspend the enchantment of solitude.”
Fleur Jaeggy, Le statue d'acqua

Jeanette Winterson
“My own heart, like this wild place, has never been visited, and I do not know whether it could sustain life.”
Jeanette Winterson, Sexing the Cherry
tags: heart, love

Marilynne Robinson
“Darkness is the only solvent. While it was dark, despite Lucille's pacing and whistling, and despite what must have been dreams (since even Sylvie came to haunt me), it seemed to me that there need not be relic, remnant, margin, residue, memento, bequest, memory, thought, track or trace if only the darkness could be perfect and permanent.”
Marilynne Robinson, Housekeeping

Samantha Hunt
“Dr. Adrienne Keene writes, “The system in what is currently known as the US isn’t ‘broken.’ It was designed by male white supremacist slaveowners on stolen Indigenous land to protect their interests. It’s working as it was designed.”
Samantha Hunt, The Unwritten Book: An Investigation
