Anthony Doerr
“But books, like people, die. They die in fires or floods or in the mouths of worms or at the whims of tyrants. If they are not safeguarded, they go out of the world. And when a book goes out of the world, the memory dies a second death.”
Anthony Doerr, Cloud Cuckoo Land

Mieko Kawakami
“Memory's funny, isn't it? We remember some things out of nowhere, but so much of what happens, we never think about again.”
Mieko Kawakami, All the Lovers in the Night

Donna Tartt
“A great sorrow, and one that I am only beginning to understand: we don’t get to choose our own hearts. We can’t make ourselves want what’s good for us or what’s good for other people. We don’t get to choose the people we are.”
Donna Tartt, The Goldfinch

Mieko Kawakami
“The light at night is special because the overwhelming light of day has left us, and the remaining half draws on everything it has to keep the world around us bright.”
Mieko Kawakami, All the Lovers in the Night

Kaveh Akbar
“Nobody thinks of now as the future past.”
Kaveh Akbar, Martyr!
