Lionel Shriver
“There is one province in which, sooner or later, virtually everyone gets dealt a leading role--hero, heroine, or villain.... Unlike the slight implications of quotidian dilemmas that confront the average citizen in other areas of life ... the stakes in this realm could not be higher. For chances are that at some point along the line you will hold in your hands another person's heart. There is no greater responsibility on the planet. However you contend with this fragile organ, which pounds or seizes in accordance with your caprice, will take your full measure.”
Lionel Shriver, The Post-Birthday World

Margaret Atwood
“Another belief of mine: that everyone else my age is an adult, whereas I am merely in disguise.”
Margaret Atwood, Cat's Eye

Margaret Atwood
“And she finds it difficult to believe—that a person would love her even when she isn't trying. Trying to figure out what other people need, trying to be worthy.”
Margaret Atwood

Margaret Atwood
“If we were all on trial for our thoughts, we would all be hanged.”
Margaret Atwood, Alias Grace

Lionel Shriver
“The good life doesn't knock on the door.
Joy is a job.”
