Jennifer Niven
“It's my experience that people are a lot more sympathetic if they can see you hurting, and for the millionth time in my life I wish for measles or smallpox or some other easily understood disease just to make it easier on me and also on them.”
Jennifer Niven, All the Bright Places

Hanya Yanagihara
“He experienced the singular pleasure of watching people he loved fall in love with other people he loved.”
Hanya Yanagihara, A Little Life

Anne Carson
“Not touching but joined in astonishment as two cuts lie parallel in the same flesh.”
Anne Carson, Autobiography of Red

Matt Haig
“And that sadness is intrinsically part of the fabric of happiness. You can’t have one without the other. Of course, they come in different degrees and quantities. But there is no life where you can be in a state of sheer happiness for ever. And imagining there is just breeds more unhappiness in the life you’re in.”
Matt Haig, The Midnight Library

Jack Kerouac
“[He] seemed at home and content now they were sailing, as though leaving the port meant the cessation of all his worries, and heading out to sea a new era of peace and amenity.”
Jack Kerouac, The Sea Is My Brother
