Han Kang
“Hasn't enough blood been shed? How can all that blood be simply covered up? The souls of the departed are watching us. Their eyes are wide open.”
Han Kang, Human Acts

Han Kang
“After you were lost to us, all our hours declined into evening. Evening are our streets and our houses. In this half-light that no longer darkens nor lightens, we eat, and walk, and sleep.”
Han Kang, Human Acts

M.L. Wang
“It’s much easier to tell yourself you’re a good person than it is to actually be one.”
M.L. Wang, Blood Over Bright Haven

Octavia E. Butler
“So why try to predict the future at all if it's so difficult, so nearly impossible? Because making predictions is one way to give warning when we see ourselves drifting in dangerous directions. Because prediction is a useful way of pointing out safer, wiser courses. Because, most of all, our tomorrow is the child of our today. Through thought and deed, we exert a great deal of influence over this child, even though we can't control it absolutely. Best to think about it, though. Best to try to shape it into something good. Best to do that for any child.”
Octavia E. Butler, A Few Rules for Predicting the Future: An Essay

Suzanne Collins
“The snow may fall, but the sun also rises.”
Suzanne Collins, Sunrise on the Reaping
