Siddhartha Mukherjee
“Without an edge, there is no self.”
Siddhartha Mukherjee, The Song of the Cell: An Exploration of Medicine and the New Human

Elizabeth Strout
“To deny my husband any chance of comforting me—oh, it was an unspeakably awful thing. And I had not known. This is the way of life: the many things we do not know until it is too late.”
Elizabeth Strout, Oh William!

Elizabeth Strout
“A friend had said to me once, “Whenever I don’t know what to do, I watch what I am doing.” And what I was doing that year was leaving, even though I had not yet left.”
Elizabeth Strout, Oh William!

Marilynne Robinson
“Embarrassment, relentless, punitive scorn, can wear away at a soul until it recedes into wordless loneliness.”
Marilynne Robinson, Jack

Elizabeth Strout
“I thought as I walked back to the airport—I thought: I know what that man feels like. (Except of course I do not.) But I thought: It’s odd, because on one hand I think I am invisible, but on the other I know what it is like to be marked as separate from society, only in my case no one knows it when they see me. But I thought that about that fat man. And about myself.”
Elizabeth Strout, Oh William!
