Meagan Church
“All of us are evolutions of ourselves, changing over time as the calendar moves forward. Who we are when we leave this world is not who we were when we entered.”
Meagan Church, The Mad Wife

“Perhaps they are coming not to demand justice (what justice, I repeated) but rather to administer justice, do justice, or even to take the law into their own hands, as the saying goes, which is the precise opposite of justice, but anyway, and given the circumstances, shouldn’t I just throw myself into the sea and drown? The B movie aspect to this hypothesis, feasible though it seemed, made me smile.”
Vincent Delecroix, Small Boat

“…I’ll say: Hey, jerk, see that guy sleeping in a cardboard box at the foot of your building? He’s rowing across the tarmac, he’s sinking too. But he’s not dozens of kilometres out at sea, at dead of night, he is quite easy to geolocate, he’s just in front of your feet. So are you going to send him help or is that my job again?”
Vincent Delecroix, Small Boat

“...the sea was always with me. There it lay, the entire length of my journey, on my right, poisoned. There were the terns and the gulls, the greyness, the pallid light, the sea with its guts glutted with women and children. Sometimes, despite the fatigue of the night shift, I had to stop on the way, park the car by the roadside and walk to the edge of the cliff to look at it: the progression of cargo ships, their hypnotic slowness, and it, at my feet, in front of me, lifeless, enormous, malign. Universal and monstrous. It’s the one thing that never sleeps.”
Vincent Delecroix, Small Boat

“...the air we breathe in is another’s dying breath.”
Vincent Delecroix, Small Boat
