“Strange”
― Penn Cole, Glow of the Everflame

“I was learning what many other people my age already knew, that grief is the worst place in the world to be trapped in. In fact, it’s a kind of sub-world that you believe only you inhabit. You aren’t alone, of course, because those you’re close to share your pain. But it’s not really their pain, is it? It’s yours. And it’s a million times worse for you than it is for anyone else.”
― John Marrs, The Good Samaritan

“Like most people who grew up poor, I’d adopted the automatic habit of appraisal when in new places. Unlike most, however, I never really understood the envy.”
― Dan Franklin, These Things Linger

“It’s possible to feel the horror of something and to accept it all at the same time. How else could we cope with being alive?”
― Catriona Ward, Sundial
