Jeff Vandermeer
“Sometimes, too, other people gave you their light, and could seem to flicker, to be hardly visible at all, if no one took care of them. Because they’d given you too much and had nothing left for themselves.”
Jeff VanderMeer, Acceptance

Pearl S. Buck
“To repay evil with kindness is the proof of a good man; a superior man blames himself, a common man blames others.”
Pearl S. Buck, Peony: A Novel of China

Jeff Vandermeer
“That’s when you rise, finally. You rise out of the mud, in the rain, and you go back inside and suddenly everything gets really cold and calm. The answer doesn’t lie in your backyard because no one is going to come and save you even if you beg them to. Especially if you beg them to. You’re on your own, like you’ve always been on your own. You have to keep going forward, until you can’t go forward anymore.
You have to hang on. You’re almost there. You can make it to the end.”
Jeff VanderMeer, Acceptance

“The Greeks were realists. They saw the beauty of common things and were content with it.”
Edith Hamilton, The Greek Way

Jeff Vandermeer
“Some things you can be so close to that you never grasp their true nature.”
Jeff VanderMeer, Acceptance
