Roland Barthes
“…the book creates meaning, the meaning creates life.”
Roland Barthes, The Pleasure of the Text

“Is memory property? If two people remember something differently is one of them wrong?”
Abigail Thomas

“Nothing is wasted when you are a writer. The stuff that doesn’t work has to be written to make way for the stuff that might;”
Abigail Thomas, What Comes Next and How to Like It

Roland Barthes
“As a language, Garbo's singularity was of the order of the concept, that of Audrey Hepburn is of the order of the substance; the face of Garbo is an Idea, that of Hepburn, an Event.”
Roland Barthes

“Anger is a luxury. Anger wants answers, retribution, reason, something that makes sense. Anger wants a story, stories help us make sense out of everything. But while we scramble to help those who need it, who has time for anger? Who has time to make sense out of anything? There is only what is. Anger is a distraction. Anger removes me from grief, and the opportunity to be helpful.”
Abigail Thomas, What Comes Next and How to Like It
