“You know that history is mostly happenstance. Accidents piled on top of mistakes, a series of dice rolled in dim rooms by careless hands. It is not a lesson, until we learn it. It is not a story, until we tell it. And every story serves someone.”
― Alix E. Harrow, The Everlasting

“We are the same species. We're all human. It's not that people cannot understand me; it's simply that most of them don't want to”
― Andrew Joseph White, The Spirit Bares Its Teeth

“But that is the nature of grammar—it is always tense, like an instrument, aching for release, longing to transform present into past into future, is into was into will.”
― Amal El-Mohtar, The River Has Roots

“I am remembering a thing, not of the past, but a thing that is yet to come. What is memory anyway? Memory is as much a product of the present as it is the past. Created with the perspectives of the present, the colors and limitations and lacunae of the present. Just as history is written by the victors, as the cliché goes, so too do the victors own the future. Who is to say we do not create memories out of the future as well? That the echo of an event doesn’t go both ways?”
― Anton Hur, Toward Eternity
