Joseph Frank
“Here Dostoevsky draws what seems to him the moral of the revolutions of 1848, and applies it to the Russian situation... "Every society can accommodate only that degree of progress that it has developed and begun to understand. Why reach further, why reach for the stars in the sky? This can destroy everything because it can frighten everyone.”
Joseph Frank, Dostoevsky: The Stir of Liberation, 1860-1865

Nghi Vo
“She was known to be kind, which you should never confuse with being gracious or beautiful or courteous.”
Nghi Vo, Into the Riverlands

Yūko Tsushima
“At daycare the next morning, I learned of the boy's accidental death. My throat tightened at the thought of the scream I'd heard: so it was him. It seemed he had been playing alone on an outside walkway, and he had gone over the railing. What was he seeing as he fell with that cry? It was nighttime; the glow of streetlamps, lighted windows, and neon signs must have streamed like water around his falling body. Perhaps he gazed in amazement at the unfamiliar torrents of lights, wondering where he was going.”
Yūko Tsushima, Territory of Light

“My dad was blown up by a tank in Poland, but he left us the car. You want a ride?”
Claire North, The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August

Tahar Ben Jelloun
“So I had to... I had to leave my country, my family, and first become the wife of a charming person, then by sheer chance meet Nazim--an immigrant or exile (I still don't know which) and a real man--for me to not only escape my sad story, but also experience love, true love, the one that gives you shivers, staggers you, makes you vulnerable, transparent, ready for anything. I hadn't known that state in which the body, when it is so desired and so well loved, climbs to the heights and gazes out over the city with an appetite for trying everything, for consuming and embracing everything.”
Tahar Ben Jelloun, Leaving Tangier
