“Few of us would make a fool of ourselves in pressing the animals to give us serious answers about their lives, but we do that all the time to other people.”
Yiyun Li, The Book of Goose

“What a tragedy that would have been, living an interchangeable life, looking for interchangeable excitements.”
Yiyun Li, The Book of Goose

“A story has to be written out. How else do we get our revenge?”
Yiyun Li, The Book of Goose

“Love from those who cannot damage us irreparably often feels insufficient; we may think, rightly or wrongly, that their love does not matter at all.”
Yiyun Li, The Book of Goose

Yiyun Li
“But the world I—no, not I, Fabienne and I—had given them: Was it real? How much of it was real? We cannot measure a world with a ruler or a scale, and conclude that it is two inches, or two ounces, short of being real. All worlds, fabricated or not, are equally real. And so they are equally unreal. If I told my parents that in Paris I was posing for the press to photograph, they would say I was making up stories no one would believe. Paris was not real to them. Neither was my fame. The world Fabienne and I made together: it was as real as our nonsense.”
Yiyun Li, The Book of Goose
