Sheila Heti
“People complained of being tired, exhaustion, not realizing that this was put in them so they wouldn't do as many things. Such people railed against their fatigue-the ones who were determined to fix things. In order to stop them, the gods tired them out. The weariest people are being the most prevented. They are the most dangerous ones, who would change the world if they could. We know which people are threatening to the gods by how exhausted they feel all the time. Those who would not make as many fixes are not given as much fatigue. You know the gods consider you dangerous if you are tired all the time.”
Sheila Heti, Pure Colour

“People should care for other people because they are familiar—because they’re also humans—not because they’re family.”
Sheila Heti, Pure Colour

Sheila Heti
“It is only when you get older that everyone makes you feel bad about being alone, or implies that spending time with other people is somehow better, because it proves you to be likeable.

But being unlikeable wasn't the reason she was alone. She was alone so she could hear herself thinking. She was alone so she could hear herself living.”
Sheila Heti, Pure Colour

Anne Carson
“I will never know how you see red and you will never know how I see it.”
Anne Carson, Autobiography of Red

Rick Riordan
“No story ever ends, does it? It just leads into others.”
Rick Riordan, The Tower of Nero
