“I had not become so wicked in my heart that I had stopped believing people could change. If a gentle child could turn into a monster, I thought, then surely a monster could become gentle again.”
Shen Tao, The Poet Empress

“Maybe some stories were like jarred butterflies, I thought, fluttering free as soon as someone broke the glass.”
Shen Tao, The Poet Empress

Rosie Hewlett
“I feel myself sharpening beneath her scrutiny. ‘I did what I had to.’
‘No, Medea. You did what Jason told you to do. Do not confuse your agency with his manipulation.”
Rosie Hewlett, Medea

Eve J. Chung
“The greatest enemy of democracy was not Communism; it was silence and ignorance, whether willfully undertaken or enforced by law.”
Eve J. Chung, The Young Will Remember

Abby Jimenez
“There's something about going on a trip with someone. Seeing how the love exists everywhere, that it's something you carry wherever you go and not just the product of the world it was created in. Going grocery shopping together in a store you've never been to, figuring out what new place you want to eat at, discovering everything together and it all feels different and new except for them. They're the constant. They're the safe space.”
Abby Jimenez, The Night We Met
