“You don't share a language, you think, and then you realise, grief is a language. We understand each other, people with troubled pasts.”

“If you weep for all the sorrows in this world, in the end you will have no eyes.”
Elif Shafak, The Island of Missing Trees

Elif Shafak
“If families resemble trees, as they say, arborescent structures with entangled roots and individual branches jutting out at awkward angles, family traumas are like thick, translucent resin dripping from a cut in the bark. They trickle down generations.”
Elif Shafak, The Island of Missing Trees

“carry yourself with the confidence of a mediocre white man”
Ali Hazelwood, The Love Hypothesis

Elif Shafak
“A map is a two-dimensional representation with arbitrary symbols and incised lines that decide who is to be our enemy and who is to be our friend, who deserves our love and who deserves our hatred and who, our sheer indifference. Cartography is another name for stories told by winners. For stories told by those who have lost, there isn’t one.”
Elif Shafak, The Island of Missing Trees
