Carson McCullers
“How can the dead be truly dead when they still live in the souls of those who are left behind?”
― Carson McCullers, The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter

Jeanette Winterson
“There is no greater grief than to find no happiness, but happiness in what is past.”
― Jeanette Winterson, The PowerBook

Djuna Barnes
“I talk too much because I have been made so miserable by what you are keeping hushed.”
― Djuna Barnes, Nightwood

Jeanette Winterson
“I like being on my own better than I like anything else, but I can't give up love. Maybe it's the tension between longing and aloneness that I need. My own funicular railway, holding in balance the two things most likely to destroy me.”
― Jeanette Winterson, The PowerBook

Jeanette Winterson
“And I thought of us, years and years later, you and I, in Paris, and how you seemed to be saying we had every choice, every chance. You acted as though you were free, but you were a ransom note. I paid to watch. I watched your fingers, your red mouth. I watched you undress. I didn't see you go.
Later I was still paying and I never counted the cost. You were worth it. Again and again you were worth it. My heart has unlimited funds. Draw on them. Draw them down. Draw me down on top of you. How much? Everything? All right.”
― Jeanette Winterson, The PowerBook
