Joanna  Cannon
“I still hadn’t learned the power of words. How, once they have left your mouth, they have a breath and a life of their own. I had yet to realize that you no longer own them. I hadn’t learned that, once you have let them go, the words can then, in fact, become the owner of you.”
Joanna Cannon, The Trouble with Goats and Sheep

Rabih Alameddine
“No loss is felt more keenly than the loss of what might have been. No nostalgia hurts as much as nostalgia for things that never existed.”
Rabih Alameddine, An Unnecessary Woman

Michael  Moss
“Some of the largest companies are now using brain scans to study how we react neurologically to certain foods, especially to sugar. They've discovered that the brain lights up for sugar the same way it does for cocaine.”
Michael Moss, Salt Sugar Fat: How the Food Giants Hooked Us

Rabih Alameddine
“Memory chooses to preserve what desire cannot hope to sustain.”
Rabih Alameddine, An Unnecessary Woman

Richard Flanagan
“He believed books had an aura that protected him, that without one beside him he would die. He happily slept without women. He never slept without a book.”
Richard Flanagan, The Narrow Road to the Deep North
