Susan Sontag
“Kindness, kindness, kindness.

I want to make a New year's prayer, not a resolution. I'm praying for courage.”
Susan Sontag

Annie Dillard
“I had hope for my rough edges. I wanted to use them as a can opener, to cut myself a hole in the world's surface, and exit through it.”
Annie Dillard, An American Childhood

Durga Chew-Bose
“Even when I’m caught off guard by a lathery shade of peach on the bottom corner of a painting at the Met, as if being reminded that I haven’t seen all the colors, and how there’s more to see, and how one color’s newness can invalidate all of my sureness. To experience infinity and sometimes too the teasing melancholy born from the smallest breakthroughs, like an unanticipated shade of peach, like Buster Keaton smiling, or my friend Doreen’s laugh—how living and opposite of halfhearted it is. Or my beautiful mother growing out her gray, or a lightning bolt’s fractal scarring on a human body, or Fantin-Latour’s hollyhocks, or the sound of someone practicing an instrument—the most sonically earnest sound. Or how staring at ocean water so blue, it leaves me bereft. In postcards, I’ll scribble “So blue!” because, what else?”
Durga Chew-Bose, Too Much and Not the Mood: Essays

Elizabeth Gilbert
“When I was younger, I had wanted to be at the very center of all the action in New York, but I slowly came to realize that there is no one center. The center is everywhere - wherever people are living out their lives. It's a city with a million centers.”
Elizabeth Gilbert, City of Girls

Elizabeth Gilbert
“When women are gathered together with no men around, they don't have to be anything in particular; they can just be”
Elizabeth Gilbert, City of Girls
