Book cover for The Dog Stars
Grief is an element. It has its own cycle like the carbon cycle, the nitrogen. It never diminishes not ever. It passes in and out of everything.

Jodi Picoult
“If you want to understand something, you first need to accept the fact of your own ignorance.”
― Jodi Picoult, Mad Honey

Connie Willis
“Say you’re in the middle of nowhere, nobody for miles and no hope of rescue. You sit down and start playing solitaire and somebody will immediately come along and tell you to play the red eight on the black nine.”
― Connie Willis, The Road to Roswell

T.J. Newman
“You don’t think everyone actually lives, do you? Most people just exist and roam around. It’s a choice, to actually live.”
― T.J. Newman, Falling

“Five decades of work. It’s strange when you think about it, because if men were actually interested in reducing abortion, it didn’t need to take fifty years. At any point, men could have eliminated elective abortions in a very short amount of time—a matter of weeks—without ever touching an abortion law, without legislating about women’s bodies, without even mentioning women. All men had to do was ejaculate responsibly. They chose not to. Today, they continue to choose not to.”
― Gabrielle Stanley Blair, Ejaculate Responsibly: A Whole New Way to Think About Abortion

Shelby Van Pelt
“Humans. For the most part, you are dull and blundering. But occasionally, you can be remarkably bright creatures.”
― Shelby Van Pelt, Remarkably Bright Creatures
