Jorge Luis Borges
“One of the schools of Tlön goes so far as to negate time; it reasons that the present is indefinite, that the future has no reality other than as a present hope, that the past has no reality other than as a present memory. Another school declares that all time has already transpired and that our life is only the crepuscular and no doubt falsified an mutilated memory or reflection of an irrecoverable process. Another, that the history of the universe — and in it our lives and the most tenuous detail of our lives — is the scripture produced by a subordinate god in order to communicate with a demon. Another, that the universe is comparable to those cryptographs in which not all the symbols are valid and that only what happens every three hundred nights is true. Another, that while we sleep here, we are awake elsewhere and that in this way every man is two men.”
Jorge Luis Borges, Labyrinths: Selected Stories & Other Writings

Zelda Fitzgerald
“Those men think I’m purely decorative, and they’re fools for not knowing better.”
Zelda Fitzgerald

Madeline Miller
“I thought: I cannot bear this world a moment longer. Then, child, make another.”
Madeline Miller, Circe

Zelda Fitzgerald
“There’s nothing in all the world I want but you and your precious love. All the material things are nothing. I’d just hate to live a sordid, colorless existence because you’d soon love me less and less and I’d do anything — anything — to keep your heart for my own. I don’t want to live—I want to love first, and live incidentally… Don’t—don’t ever think of the things you can’t give me. You’ve trusted me with the dearest heart of all—and it’s so damn much more than anybody else in all the world has ever had.”
Zelda Fitzgerald, Dear Scott, Dearest Zelda: The Love Letters of F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald

Madeline Miller
“The thought was this: that all my life had been murk and depths, but I was not a part of that dark water. I was a creature within it.”
Madeline Miller, Circe
