Paul Klee
“One eye sees, the other feels.”
Paul Klee

Maggie Nelson
“Eventually I confess to a friend some details about my weeping—its intensity, its frequency. She says (kindly) that she thinks we sometimes weep in front of a mirror not to inflame self-pity, but because we want to feel witnessed in our despair.”
Maggie Nelson, Bluets

Anna Akhmatova
“This land, although not my native land,
Will be remembered forever.
And the sea's lightly iced,
Unsalty water.

The sand on the bottom is whiter than chalk,
The air is heady, like wine,
And the rosy body of the pines
Is naked in the sunset hour.

And the sunset itself on such waves of ether
That I just can't comprehend
Whether it is the end of the day, the end of the world,
Or the mystery of mysteries in me again.”
Anna Akhmatova, The Complete Poems of Anna Akhmatova

Maggie Nelson
“199. For to wish to forget how much you loved someone—and then, to actually forget—can feel, at times, like the slaughter of a beautiful bird who chose, by nothing short of grace, to make a habitat of your heart.”
Maggie Nelson, Bluets

Patti Smith
“No one expected me. Everything awaited me.”
Patti Smith, Just Kids
