Sigrid Nunez
“Strays is what a writer I recently read calls those who, for one reason or another, and despite whatever they might have wanted earlier in life, never really become a part of life, not in the way most people do. They may have serious relationships, they may have friends, even a sizable circle, they may spend large portions of their time in the company of others. But they never marry and they never have children. On holidays, they join some family or other group. This goes on year after year, until they finally find it in themselves to admit that they'd really rather just stay home.”
Sigrid Nunez, The Friend

Patricia Hampl
“Life is a journey. A hopeless cliché. But not its fault. Cliché is the fate of every fully absorbed truth. The stars, for example, do look like diamonds. You just can’t say so.”
Patricia Hampl, The Art of the Wasted Day

Denise Levertov
“Grief is a hole you walk around in the daytime and at night you fall into it.”
Denise Levertov

Patricia Hampl
“Not erotic life, but the pleasure of the mind filling like the lower chamber of an hourglass with the slow-moving grains of a perfect day—sky, carnations, walking, reading, writing, Toasted Cheese, the presence of another who wishes to be so still, so silent too.”
Patricia Hampl, The Art of the Wasted Day

Sigrid Nunez
“When people are very young they see animals as equals, even as kin. That humans are different, unique and superior to all other species - this they have to be taught.”
Sigrid Nunez, The Friend
