Toshikazu Kawaguchi
“Water flows from high places to low places. That is the nature of gravity. Emotions also seem to act according to gravity. When in the presence of someone with whom you have a bond, and to whom you have entrusted your feelings, it is hard to lie and get away with it. The truth just wants to come flowing out. This is especially the case when you are trying to hide your sadness or vulnerability. It is much easier to conceal sadness from a stranger, or from someone you don’t trust.”
Toshikazu Kawaguchi, Before the Coffee Gets Cold

Emma Donoghue
“Stories are a different kind of true.”
Emma Donoghue, Room

Emma Donoghue
“It's weird to have something that's mine-not-Ma's. Everything else is both of ours. I guess my body is mine and the ideas that happen in my head. But my cells are made out of her cells so I'm kind of hers.”
Emma Donoghue, Room

Tara Westover
“The decisions I made after that moment were not the ones she would have made. They were the choices of a changed person, a new self.
You could call this selfhood many things. Transformation. Metamorphosis. Falsity. Betrayal.
I call it an education”
Tara Westover, Educated

Matthew Woodring Stover
“A lie is like a pet- you have to take care of it, or it'll turn on you and bite you in the ass.”
Matthew Stover, Heroes Die
