“Read a verse of Homer and you can walk the walls of Troy alongside Hector; fall into a paragraph by Fitzgerald and your Now entangles with Gatsby’s Now; open a 1953 book by Ray Bradbury and go hunting T. rexes.

Step into one, and off you go.”
― Anthony Doerr, author of “All the Light We Cannot See”

“It made leaving bearable, knowing I'd had that kind of love in my life. Knowing I'd had the best thing.”

― Saul Black, The Killing Lessons

“A thoughtful pause and then: ‘Maybe to make it easy to find, but look like it’s hard to find, so you’d find it but think it wasn’t meant to be found, even though you only really found it because someone wanted it to be found?”
