Jeanette Winterson
“Women are just planets that attract the wrong species.”
Jeanette Winterson, The Stone Gods: A Novel

Jeanette Winterson
“Pulsar: a dying star spinning under its own exploding anarchic energy, like a lighthouse on speed. A star the size of a city, a city the size of a star, whirling round and round, its death-song caught by a radio receiver, light years later, like a recorded message nobody heard, back-played now into infinity across time. Love and loss.”
Jeanette Winterson, The Stone Gods

Oscar Wilde
“Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.”
Oscar Wilde

Jeanette Winterson
“There’s a planet,’ said Spike, ‘made of water, entirely of water, where every solid thing is its watery equivalent. There are no seas because there is no land. There are no rivers because there are no banks. There is no thirst because there is no dry.
‘The planet is like a bowl of water except that there is no bowl. It hangs in space as a drop of water hangs from a leaf, except that there is no leaf. It cannot exist, and yet it does. I tell you this so you know that what is impossible sometimes happens.”
Jeanette Winterson, The Stone Gods

Jeanette Winterson
“There are two questions: where have you come from, and where are you going? But the brain doesn't have separate regions for the past and future; only the present is differentiated by the brain.
We split time into three parts. The brain, it seems, splits it twice only: now, and not now.”
