“I miss you more than I remember you.”
Ocean Vuong, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous

“I remember learning that saints were only people whose pain was notable, noted.”
Ocean Vuong, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous

Gail Honeyman
“These days, loneliness is the new cancer—a shameful, embarrassing thing, brought upon yourself in some obscure way. A fearful, incurable thing, so horrifying that you dare not mention it; other people don’t want to hear the word spoken aloud for fear that they might too be afflicted, or that it might tempt fate into visiting a similar horror upon them.”
Gail Honeyman, Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine

“They will want you to succeed, but never more than them. They will write their names on your leash and call you necessary, call you urgent.”
Ocean Vuong, On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous

“The trouble with good fortune is that we tend to equate it with personal goodness, so that if things are going well for us and less well for others, it’s assumed they must have done something to have brought that misfortune on themselves while we must have worked harder to avoid it. We speak of ourselves as being blessed, but what can that mean except that others are not blessed, and that God has picked out a few of us to love more? It is our responsibility to care for one another, to create fairness in the face of unfairness and find equality where none may have existed in the past.”
Ann Patchett, These Precious Days: Essays
