Anne Sexton
“All I wanted was a little piece of life, to be married, to have children. [...] I was trying my damnedest to lead a conventional life, for that was how I was brought up, and it was what my husband wanted of me. But one can't build little white picket fences to keep the nightmares out.”
Anne Sexton

Mercè Rodoreda
“And I got a strong feeling of the passage of time. Not the time of clouds and sun and rain and the moving stars that adorn the night, not spring when its time comes or fall, not the time that makes leaves bud on branches and then tears them off or folds and unfolds and colors the flowers, but the time inside me, the time you can't see but it molds us. The time that rolls on and on in people's hearts and makes them roll along with it and gradually changes us inside and out and makes us what we'll be on our dying day.”
Merce Rodoreda, The Time of the Doves

James Baldwin
“Children have never been very good at listening to their elders, but they have never failed to imitate them.”
James Baldwin

Frank McCourt
“He says, you have to study and learn so that you can make up your own mind about history and everything else but you can’t make up an empty mind. Stock your mind, stock your mind. You might be poor, your shoes might be broken, but your mind is a palace.”
Frank McCourt, Angela's Ashes

Frank McCourt
“I don't know what it means and I don't care because it's Shakespeare and it's like having jewels in my mouth when I say the words.”
Frank McCourt, Angela's Ashes
