Ocean Vuong
“A page, turning, is a wing lifted with no twin, and therefore no flight. And yet we are moved.”
Ocean Vuong, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous

Ocean Vuong
“What were you before you met me?"
"I think I was drowning"
"And what are you now?"
"Water”
Ocean Vuong, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous

Ocean Vuong
“When does a war end? When can I say your name and have it mean only your name and not what you left behind?”
Ocean Vuong, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous

Ocean Vuong
“Maybe in the next life we'll meet each other for the first time- believing in everything but the harm we're capable of. Maybe we'll be the opposite of buffaloes. We'll grow wings and spill over the cliff as a generation of monarchs, heading home. Green Apple.

Like snow covering the particulars of the city, they will say we never happened, that our survival was a myth. But they're wrong. You and I, we were real. We laughed knowing joy would tear the stitches from our lips.

Remember: The rules, like streets, can only take you to known places. Underneath the grid is a field- it was always there- where to be lost is never to be wrong, but simply more.

As a rule, be more.

As a rule, I miss you.

As a rule,"little" is always smaller than "small". Don't ask me why.

I'm sorry I don't call enough.

Green Apple.

I'm sorry I keep saying How are you? when I really mean Are you happy?”
Ocean Vuong, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous

Ocean Vuong
“I am thinking of beauty again, how some things are hunted because we have deemed them beautiful. If, relative to the history of our planet, an individual life is so short, a blink, as they say, then to be gorgeous, even from the day you're born to the day you die, is to be gorgeous only briefly.”
Ocean Vuong, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous
