Yann Martel
“I must say a word about fear. It is life's only true opponent. Only fear can defeat life. It is a clever, treacherous adversary, how well I know. It has no decency, respects no law or convention, shows no mercy. It goes for your weakest spot, which it finds with unnerving ease. It begins in your mind, always ... so you must fight hard to express it. You must fight hard to shine the light of words upon it. Because if you don't, if your fear becomes a wordless darkness that you avoid, perhaps even manage to forget, you open yourself to further attacks of fear because you never truly fought the opponent who defeated you.”
Yann Martel, Life of Pi

Patti Callahan Henry
“Cheating and lying aren't struggles, they're reasons to break up.”
Patti Callahan Henry, Between The Tides

Suzanne Finnamore
“Such silence has an actual sound, the sound of disappearance.”
Suzanne Finnamore, Split: A Memoir of Divorce

Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa
“If we want things to stay as they are, things will have to change.”
Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa , The Leopard

Yann Martel
“Dare I say I miss him? I do. I miss him. I still see him in my dreams. They are nightmares mostly, but nightmares tinged with love.

I still cannot understand how he could abandon me so unceremoniously, without any sort of goodbye, without looking back even once. That pain is like an axe that chops at my heart.”
Yann Martel, Life of Pi
