Ottessa Moshfegh
“What about heaven, Ina? Don’t you want to go?’ ‘It doesn’t matter,’ she said. ‘I won’t know anyone.”
― Ottessa Moshfegh, Lapvona

Julian K.  Jarboe
“God blessed me by making me transsexual for the same reason he made wheat but not bread and fruit but not wine: so that humanity might share in the act of creation.”
― Julian K. Jarboe, Everyone on the Moon Is Essential Personnel

Jane Austen
“Now I must speak of him, and I like him very much . I am sure he is clever, and a man of taste. He got a volume of Milton last night, and spoke of it with warmth. He is quite an M.P., very smiling, with an exceeding good address and readines of language. I am rather in love with him. I dare say he is ambitious and insincere”
― Jane Austen, Jane Austen's Letters

Ottessa Moshfegh
“Please, Erno. It’s Sunday. It’s evil to discuss money on the Sabbath,
don’t you know?’
‘It’s Tuesday, my lord,’ Erno muttered.
‘Every day is Sunday in God’s kingdom.’
‘Then when would we work?’
‘Please, Erno. Clod needs to concentrate.”
― Ottessa Moshfegh, Lapvona

Pier Vittorio Tondelli
“From the outset he knew that Thomas would never be "everything" to him. This is why he called their love "separate rooms". He experienced being with Thomas in the intimate knowledge that they would split up sooner or later. Separation was an essential strength in their relationship, and an essential part of it too, just like the idea of attraction, or growth, or sexual desire. It represented an awareness that if you did not stop the other person from leaving, this made the relationship all the more human.”
― Pier Vittorio Tondelli, Camere separate
