J.D. Salinger
“Don't tell people what you are thinking, or you will miss them terribly when you are away.”
J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye

Maggie Nelson
“Eventually I confess to a friend some details about my weeping—its intensity, its frequency. She says (kindly) that she thinks we sometimes weep in front of a mirror not to inflame self-pity, but because we want to feel witnessed in our despair. (Can a reflection be a witness? Can one pass oneself the sponge wet with vinegar from a reed?)”
Maggie Nelson, Bluets

Maggie Nelson
“Suppose I were to begin by saying that I had fallen in love with a color.”
Maggie Nelson, Bluets

Maggie Nelson
“53. 'We mainly suppose the experiential quality to be an intrinsic quality of the physical object'-this is the so-called systematic illusion of color. Perhaps it is also that of love. But I am not willing to go there-not just yet. I believed in you.”
Maggie Nelson, Bluets

Maggie Nelson
“I have heard that this pain can be converted, as it were, by accepting “the fundamental impermanence of all things.” This acceptance bewilders me: sometimes it seems an act of will; at others, of surrender.”
Maggie Nelson, Bluets
