“As if to incentivize the whole ordeal, the body offered you dreams. In exchange for a third of your living, you were offered sprawling feasts, exotic adventures, beautiful lovers, wings. Or at least the promise of them, made only slightly less intoxicating by the curious threat of nightmare.

― Kaveh Akbar, Martyr!

“When I see him using every bit of strength to inch his body close to mine, I am filled with a love so visceral, it could shatter the earth. I am his. And he is mine. It’s the kind of love that claws its way out of your gut, rips you apart, and puts you back together again. He is worth all the blood and pain, all the tears, and all the sleepless nights.”
― Julia Fox, Down the Drain

“There exists a field, beyond all notions of right and wrong. I will meet you there.”
― Jalal ad-Din Muhammad Rumi, The Essential Rumi

“Love was a room that appeared when you stepped into it.”
― Kaveh Akbar, Martyr!
