Book cover for The Imperfectionists
You can’t dread what you can’t experience. The only death we experience is that of other people. That’s as bad as it gets.

“There are a few times in life when you leap up and the past that you'd been standing on falls away behind you, and the future you mean to land on is not yet in place, and for a moment you're suspended knowing nothing and no one, not even yourself.”
Ann Patchett, The Dutch House

Barbara Kingsolver
“A city is the weirdest, loneliest thing.”
Barbara Kingsolver, Demon Copperhead

Kelly Gallagher
“Clearly, if we want students to perform well on standardized reading tests, our top priority should not be on narrowing students into a test-prep curriculum; our focus should be on providing our students with the widest reading experiences possible.”
Kelly Gallagher, Readicide: How Schools Are Killing Reading and What You Can Do About It

Salman Rushdie
“Morality came before religion, and religion was our ancestors' way of responding to that built-in need. And if that was so, then it was perfectly possible to lead a good life, to have a strong sense of right and wrong, without ever letting God and his harpies into the room.”
Salman Rushdie, The Golden House

C.J. Tudor
“Thin, I think, that fabric between realities. Maybe minds aren't lost. Maybe they just slip through and find a different place to wander.”
C.J. Tudor, The Chalk Man
