Jeanette Winterson
“Who taught you to write in blood on my back? Who taught you to use your hands as branding irons? You have scored your name into my shoulders, referenced me with your mark. The pads of your fingers have become printing blocks, you tap a message on to my skin, tap meaning into my body.”
Jeanette Winterson, Written on the Body

Hermann Broch
“Those who live by the sea can hardly form a single thought of which the sea would not be part.”
Hermann Broch

Madeline Miller
“Humbling women seems to me a chief pastime of poets. As if there can be no story unless we crawl and weep.”
Madeline Miller, Circe

Mary Oliver
“If you are in the garden, I will dress myself in leaves. If you are in the sea I will slide into that smooth blue nest, I will talk fish, I will adore salt.

And if you are angry I will come, calm and steady, with some small and easy story.”
Mary Oliver, The Leaf and the Cloud: A Poem

Cormac McCarthy
“Where men can't live gods fare no better.”
Cormac McCarthy, The Road
