Richard Powers
“There are four good things worth practicing. Being kind toward everything alive. Staying level and steady. Feeling happy for any creature anywhere that is happy. And remembering that any suffering is also yours.”
Richard Powers, Bewilderment

Abraham   Verghese
“Secrecy lives in the same rooms as loneliness.”
Abraham Verghese, The Covenant of Water

Abraham   Verghese
“To be listened to is healing,”
Abraham Verghese, The Covenant of Water

Sloane Crosley
“But there was never going to be a version of the story in which it wasn't my missing jewelry and my dead friend. You can ignore grief. You push it around your plate. But you can't give it away.”
Sloane Crosley, Grief Is for People

Abraham   Verghese
“Philipose quotes Gandhi: “There are people in the world so hungry, that God cannot appear to them except in the form of food.”
Abraham Verghese, The Covenant of Water
