“Nothing stops when we’re gone,” Lydia said. “The seasons don’t stop. This river doesn’t stop. Vultures will keep flying in circles. The lives of the people we love won’t stop. Time keeps unspooling. Stories keep getting written.”
Jeff Zentner, The Serpent King

André Aciman
“There is a law somewhere that says that when one person is thoroughly smitten with the other, the other must unavoidably be smitten as well. Amor ch’a null’amato amar perdona. Love, which exempts no one who’s loved from loving, Francesca’s words in the Inferno. Just wait and be hopeful. I was hopeful, though perhaps this was what I had wanted all along. To wait forever. ”
André Aciman, Call Me by Your Name

David Nicholls
“Just kidding' was exactly what people wrote when they meant every word.”
David Nicholls, One Day

Jenny Offill

Jenny Offill, Dept. of Speculation

Jenny Offill
“Anger looked like fireworks. Love was an indistinct blur.”
Jenny Offill, Dept. of Speculation
