Jill Santopolo
“And though she was in this dark and broken place, she was still able to create beauty.”
Jill Santopolo, The Light We Lost

Jill Santopolo
“There are people we come across during our lives who, after they drift out of our worlds, drift out for good. Even if we see them again, it’s a quick, meaningless hi and how are you? There are other people, though, with whom things pick up right where the relationship left off, whenever we run into them. The level of comfort—it feels like no time has passed.”
Jill Santopolo, The Light We Lost

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
“She rested her head against his and felt, for the first time, what she would often feel with him: a self-affection. He made her like herself. With him, she was at ease; her skin felt as though it was her right size.. It seemed so natural, to talk to him about odd things. She had never done that before. The trust, so sudden and yet so complete, and the intimacy, frightened her.. But now she could think only of all the things she yet wanted to tell him, wanted to do with him.”
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Americanah

André Aciman
“«Senti» mi interruppe, «tra voi c’è una bella amicizia. Forse anche qualcosa in più. E io ti invidio. Al posto mio, la maggior parte dei genitori spererebbe che tutto si dissolva, o pregherebbe che il figlio ne esca indenne. Ma io non sono così. Al posto tuo, se il dolore c’è, lo farei sfogare, e se la fiamma è accesa, non la spegnerei, cercherei di non essere troppo duro. Chiudersi in se stessi può essere una cosa terribile quando ci tiene svegli di notte, e vedere che gli altri ci dimenticano prima di quanto vorremmo non è tanto meglio. Rinunciamo a tanto di noi per guarire più in fretta del dovuto, che finiamo in bancarotta a trent’anni, e ogni volta che ricominciamo con una persona nuova abbiamo meno da offrire. Ma non provare niente per non rischiare di provare qualcosa… che spreco!»”
André Aciman, Call Me by Your Name
