Jeanette Winterson
“How is it that one day life is orderly and you are content, a little cynical perhaps but on the whole just so, and then without warning you find the solid floor is a trapdoor and you are now in another place whose geography is uncertain and whose customs are strange?
Travellers at least have a choice. Those who set sail know know that things will not be the same as at home. Explorers are prepared. But for us, who travel to cities of the interior by chance, there is no preparation. We who are fluent find life is a foreign language. Somewhere between the swamp and the mountains. Somewhere between fear and sex. Somewhere between God and the Devil passion is and the way there is sudden and the way back worse.”
Jeanette Winterson, The Passion

Gabriel García Márquez
“What does he say?' he asked.
'He’s very sad,’ Úrsula answered, ‘because he thinks that you’re going to die.'
'Tell him,' the colonel said, smiling, 'that a person doesn’t die when he should but when he can.”
Gabriel García Márquez, One Hundred Years of Solitude

Alan Lightman
“Suppose time is a circle, bending back on itself. The world repeats itself, precisely, endlessly.”
Alan Lightman, Einstein’s Dreams

Jeanette Winterson
“Although wherever you are going is always in front of you, there is no such thing as straight ahead.”
Jeanette Winterson, The Passion

Jeanette Winterson
“Gambling is not a vice, it is an expression of our humanness.
We gamble. Some do it at the gaming table, some do not.
You play, you win, you play, you lose. You play. ”
Jeanette Winterson, The Passion
