“It was not burning, it was warming.”
― Ray Bradbury, Fahrenheit 451

“A kid is a terrible thing to be, in charge of nothing. If you get past that and grown, it’s easiest to forget about the misery and pretend you knew all along what you were doing.”
― Barbara Kingsolver, Demon Copperhead

“Because I am enough. My heart is enough. The stories and the sentences twisting around my mind are enough. I am fizzing and frothing and buzzing and exploding. I’m bubbling over and burning up. My early-morning walks and my late-night baths are enough. My loud laugh at the pub is enough. My piercing whistle, my singing in the shower, my double-jointed toes are enough. I am a just-pulled pint with a good, frothy head on it. I am my own universe; a galaxy; a solar system. I am the warm-up act, the main event, and the backing singers.”
― Dolly Alderton, Everything I Know About Love

“Sometimes Aldo thought a fall was precisely what he was waiting for.”
― Olivie Blake, Alone With You in the Ether
