Fyodor Dostoevsky
“I don’t know how to be silent when my heart is speaking.”
Fyodor Dostoyevsky, White Nights

Jeff Vandermeer
“some questions will ruin you if you are denied the answer long enough.”
Jeff VanderMeer, Annihilation

Caitlin Doughty
“In many ways, women are death's natural companions. Every time a woman gives birth, she is creating not only a life, but a death. Samuel Beckett wrote that women "give birth astride of a grave." Mother Nature is indeed a real mother, creating and destroying in a constant loop.”
Caitlin Doughty, Smoke Gets in Your Eyes: And Other Lessons from the Crematory

Sappho
“I declare
That later on,
Even in an age unlike our own,
Someone will remember who we are.”
Sappho, Come Close

Sarah Waters
“Is this desire? How queer that I, of all people, should not know! But I thought desire smaller, neater; I supposed it bound to its own organs as taste is bound to the mouth, vision to the eye. This feeling haunts and inhabits me, like a sickness. It covers me, like skin.”
Sarah Waters, Fingersmith
