Book cover for How to Stop Time
The lesson of history is that ignorance and superstition are things that can rise up, inside almost anyone, at any moment. And what starts as a doubt in a mind can swiftly become an act in the world.

Jean Hanff Korelitz
“This was the flaw in making a bargain with yourself. There is no one else there to agree to the terms.”
Jean Hanff Korelitz, The Latecomer

Nathan  Hill
“Sometimes what we avoid most is not pain but mystery. He”
Nathan Hill, The Nix

Alice Hoffman
“Despite the curse, despite the losses you might endure, she knew now that love was the only thing that lasted. It was inside you and with you for all eternity.”
Alice Hoffman, Magic Lessons

Matt Haig
“And, just as it only takes a moment to die, it only takes a moment to live. You just close your eyes and let every futile fear slip away. And then, in this new state, free from fear, you ask yourself: who am I? If I could live without doubt what would I do? If I could be kind without the fear of being fucked over? If I could love without fear of being hurt? If I could taste the sweetness of today without thinking of how I will miss that taste tomorrow? If I could not fear the passing of time and the people it will steal? Yes. What would I do? Who would I care for? What battle would I fight? Which paths would I step down? What joys would I allow myself? What internal mysteries would I solve? How, in short, would I live?”
Matt Haig, How to Stop Time

Meg Wolitzer
“mostly they had to take pleasure in the moments that no one else would ever witness.”
Meg Wolitzer, The Ten-Year Nap
