“Do you not find consciousness alone to be the most exhilarating thing? Here we are, in this incomprehensibly large universe, on this one tiny moon around this one incidental planet, and in all the time this entire scenario has existed, every component has been recycled over and over and over again into infinitely incredible configurations, and sometimes, those configurations are special enough to be able to see the world around them. You and I—we’re just atoms that arranged themselves the right way, and we can understand that about ourselves. Is that not amazing?”
Becky Chambers, A Psalm for the Wild-Built

Alice Oseman
“Give your friendships the magic you would give a romance. Because they're just as important. Actually, for us, they're way more important.”
Alice Oseman, Loveless

Taylor Jenkins Reid
“It hurts to care about someone more than they care about themselves.”
Taylor Jenkins Reid, Daisy Jones & The Six

Baek Se-hee
“I am someone who is completely unique in this world, someone I need to take care of for the rest of my life, and therefore someone I need to help take each step forwards, warmly and patiently, to allow to rest on some days and to encourage on others - I believe that the more I look into this strange being, myself, the more routes I will find to happiness.”
Baek Se-hee, I Want to Die But I Want to Eat Tteokpokki

Murasaki Shikibu
“As Genji mused about the transitory nature of life, intense feelings of weariness and distaste for the world overwhelmed him. How much longer must he go on living in it now that he had been left behind?”
Murasaki Shikibu, The Tale of Genji: A Norton Critical Edition
