Jeffrey Eugenides
“The zipper opened all the way down our spines.”
Jeffrey Eugenides, The Virgin Suicides

Jeffrey Eugenides
“We Greeks are a moody people. Suicide makes sense to us. Putting up Christmas lights after your own daughter does it—that makes no sense. What my yia yia could never understand about America was why everyone pretended to be happy all the time.”
Jeffrey Eugenides, The Virgin Suicides

Jeffrey Eugenides
“His lost look of a man who realized that all this dying was going to be the only life he ever had.”
Jeffrey Eugenides, The Virgin Suicides

Frank O'Hara
“Now I am quietly waiting for
the catastrophe of my personality
to seem beautiful again,
and interesting, and modern.

The country is grey and
brown and white in trees,
snows and skies of laughter
always diminishing, less funny
not just darker, not just grey.

It may be the coldest day of
the year, what does he think of
that? I mean, what do I? And if I do,
perhaps I am myself again.”
Frank O'Hara, Meditations in an Emergency
