John Donne
“If our two loves be one, or, thou and I
Love so alike, that none do slacken, none can die.”
John Donne, The Complete English Poems

Thomas Hardy
“He was to them like the poet of a new school who takes his contemporaries by storm; who is not really new, but is the first to articulate what all his listeners have felt, though but dumbly till then.”
Thomas Hardy, The Mayor of Casterbridge

Andrea Gibson
“The trauma said, ‘Don’t write these poems.
Nobody wants to hear you cry about the grief inside your bones.”
Andrea Gibson, The Madness Vase

Kahlil Gibran
“لا , لا ٔاريد ٔان يفهمني بشري ٕاذا كان فهمه ٕاياي ضرباً من العبودية المعنوية . وما ٔاكثر الذين يتوهمون ٔانهم يفهموننا لأنهم وجدوا في بعض مظاهرنا شئياً شبيهاً بما اختبروه مرة في حياتهم . وليتهم يكتفون بادعائهم ادراك ٔاسرارنا – تلك الأسرار التي نحن ذواتنا لا ندركها – ولكنهم يصموننا بعلامات و أرقام ثم يضعوننا علىٕ رف من رفوف ٔافكارهم واعتقاداتهم مثلما يفعل الصيدلي بقناني الدوية والمساحيق !”
جبران خليل جبران, Love Letters: The Love Letters of Kahlil Gibran to May Ziadah

Michelle Collins Anderson
“Sometimes I think spring lasts about fifteen minutes around here and then we're all sitting on Hell's front porch.”
Michelle Collins Anderson, The Flower Sisters
