“I hold nothing dear. Not the place where I live, not the door I pass through every day, not even, damn it, my life.”
― Han Kang, The White Book

“You need to live a life that you can cope with, not the one that other people want. Start saying no. Just do one thing a day. No more than two social events in a week.”
― Katherine May, Wintering: The Power of Rest and Retreat in Difficult Times

“I’m feeling the full force of the guilt of being unable to keep up, of having now fallen so far behind that I can’t imagine a way back in. That grinding mix of grief, exhaustion, lost will, lost hope. My only tenable position is to retreat into a dignified silence, but that’s not what I want at all. I want to give an account of myself, force everyone else to understand.”
― Katherine May, Wintering: The Power of Rest and Retreat in Difficult Times

“Kuidas me elame nii, et kogu aeg on järgmine asi silmapiiril, kogu aeg püüdleme millegi suunas ja üldse ei märka, et õnn on õuel? Märkame ainult, et peaksime olema tublimad ja õnnelikumad ja targemad ja rohkem jõudma. Oleme aastaid iga päev millegi nimel pingutanud, aga ei märkagi, kui töö on vilja kandnud.”
― Eia Uus, Eluisu
