“The world doesn't always happen in a linear manner. Nature is much more creative than that, especially when it comes to time and the manipulation of time and space. Europe has gifted us with inventions, books and the intricate mechanics of imposing structures on the earth, but there are other means to knowledge and the structuring of knowledge that have no context in the European mind.”
― Joy Harjo, She Had Some Horses

“Hell is the absence of the people you long for.”
― Emily St. John Mandel, Station Eleven

“You learned about autumn early.”
― Pico Iyer, Autumn Light: Season of Fire and Farewells

“Phenomenal, to be such a small, weak, short-lived being on a planet with billions of years left to run.”
― Richard Powers, The Overstory
