Book cover for My Evil Mother
My mother had a thing for blue in tableware; she said it warded off any evil eyes intent on ruining the food.

Rainer Maria Rilke
“God speaks to each of us as he makes us,
then walks with us silently out of the night.

These are the words we dimly hear:

You, sent out beyond your recall,
go to the limits of your longing.
Embody me.

Flare up like a flame
and make big shadows I can move in.

Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror.
Just keep going. No feeling is final.
Don't let yourself lose me.

Nearby is the country they call life.
You will know it by its seriousness.

Give me your hand.”
Rainer Maria Rilke, Rilke's Book of Hours: Love Poems to God

Mohammed Hanif
“He won’t stop the war until you give him the peace prize.”
Mohammed Hanif, A Case of Exploding Mangoes

John  Green
“The only way out of the labyrinth of suffering is to forgive.”
John Green, Looking for Alaska

Mohammed Hanif
“You want freedom and they give you chicken korma.”
Mohammed Hanif, A Case of Exploding Mangoes

Ralph Waldo Emerson
“A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines. With consistency a great soul has simply nothing to do. He may as well concern himself with his shadow on the wall. Speak what you think now in hard words, and to-morrow speak what to-morrow thinks in hard words again, though it contradict every thing you said to-day. — 'Ah, so you shall be sure to be misunderstood.' — Is it so bad, then, to be misunderstood? Pythagoras was misunderstood, and Socrates, and Jesus, and Luther, and Copernicus, and Galileo, and Newton, and every pure and wise spirit that ever took flesh. To be great is to be misunderstood.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson, Self-Reliance: An Excerpt from Collected Essays, First Series
