Anna Akhmatova
“I am in the middle of it: chaos and poetry; poetry and love and again, complete chaos. Pain, disorder, occasional clarity; and at the bottom of it all: only love; poetry. Sheer enchantment, fear, humiliation. It all comes with love”
Anna Akhmatova, The Akhmatova Journals, Volume I: 1938-1941

Jamaica Kincaid
“It is sad that unless you are born a god, your life,from its very beginning, is a mystery to you.”
Jamaica Kincaid, The Autobiography of My Mother

Junot Díaz
“The half-life of love is forever.”
Junot Díaz, This Is How You Lose Her

Anna Akhmatova
