“Pylades: I’ll take care of you.
Orestes: It’s rotten work.
Pylades: Not to me. Not if it’s you.”
Anne Carson, Euripides

David Foster Wallace
“That sometimes human beings have to just sit in one place and, like, hurt. That you will become way less concerned with what other people think of you when you realize how seldom they do. That there is such a thing as raw, unalloyed, agendaless kindness. That it is possible to fall asleep during an anxiety attack. That concentrating on anything is very hard work.”
David Foster Wallace, Infinite Jest

Charles Bukowski
“when the phone rings
I too would like to hear words
that might ease
some of this.”
Charles Bukowski, Love Is a Dog from Hell

Joni Mitchell
“We are stardust
Billion-year old carbon
And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden”
Joni Mitchell, Joni Mitchell: The Complete Poems and Lyrics

Annabel Lyon
“Soon, I'll be alone in a quiet room where, for the rest of my life, I can float farther and farther out into the world; while my student, charging off the end of every map, falls deeper and deeper into the well of himself. 'Never be afraid to enter an argument you can't immediately see yourself out of.' Can anyone tell me what a tragedy is?”
Annabel Lyon, The Golden Mean
