Book cover for I Swear: Politics Is Messier Than My Minivan
When I prevailed on him to come to California to listen to the stories of foreclosed homeowners, he told them he knew the pain of home loss. Just a year before, in 2011, Hurricane Irene had destroyed his yacht in North Carolina.

Kaveh Akbar
“When asked about the difficulties of sculpture, Michelangelo said, “It is easy. You just chip away all the stone that isn’t David.” It’s simple to cut things out of a life. You break up with a shitty partner, quit eating bread, delete the Twitter app. You cut it out, and the shape of what’s actually killing you clarifies a little. The whole Abrahamic world invests itself in this promise: Don’t lie, don’t cheat, don’t fuck or steal or kill, and you’ll be a good person. Eight of the ten commandments are about what thou shalt not. But you can live a whole life not doing any of that stuff and still avoid doing any good. That’s the whole crisis. The rot at the root of everything. The belief that goodness is built on a constructed absence, not-doing. That belief corrupts everything, has everyone with any power sitting on their hands. A rich man goes a whole day without killing a single homeless person and so goes to sleep content in his goodness. In another world, he’s buying crates of socks and Clif bars and tents, distributing them in city centers. But for him, abstinence reigns.”
Kaveh Akbar, Martyr!

Rick Riordan
“The first time Calypso came to check on [Leo], it was to complain about the noise.
“Smoke and fire,” she said. “Clanging on metal all day long. You’re scaring away the birds!”
“Oh, no, not the birds!”
Rick Riordan, The House of Hades

Danielle  Paige
“Be brave. Be angry. Don't trust anyone.”
Danielle Paige, Dorothy Must Die

Maggie Stiefvater
“If you never saw the stars, candles were enough.”
Maggie Stiefvater, The Dream Thieves

Heidi Raines
“At the very least, to set our healthcare workers, patients, and patient caregivers up for success, we must modernize the systems that guide their work and enable their voices to be heard—especially when they see opportunities to prevent harm and improve care environments.”
Heidi Raines, Shared Voices: A Framework for Patient and Employee Safety in Healthcare
