Hanya Yanagihara
“the only trick of friendship, I think, is to find people who are better than you are—not smarter, not cooler, but kinder, and more generous, and more forgiving—and then to appreciate them for what they can teach you, and to try to listen to them when they tell you something about yourself, no matter how bad—or good—it might be, and to trust them, which is the hardest thing of all.”
Hanya Yanagihara, A Little Life

Donald J. Trump
“Hurricane will be 'tremendously big and tremendously wet.”
President Donald Trump

Diana Xarissa
“I don’t understand why people are such snobs about books. If you enjoy romances, read them. I don’t want Thanksgiving dinner every day. Some days I want a ham sandwich and a dozen chocolate chip cookies. And some days I want to read Jane Austen, and other days I want to read Agatha Christie, or maybe some author that no one has ever heard of who writes fun books that make me smile.”
Diana Xarissa, Cars and Cold Cases

Erin Morgenstern
“I also think most of us are two steps away from jumping off something most of the time and you never know if the next day is going to push you in one direction or another”
Erin Morgenstern, The Starless Sea

“Dream like a child. Reason like an elder. Play like a youth. Work like an adult.”
Matshona Dhliwayo
