Henrik Ibsen
“It's a liberation to know that an act of spontaneous courage is yet possible in this world. An act that has something of unconditional beauty.”
Henrik Ibsen, Hedda Gabler

Bae Suah
“Whatever the intention or aim of the photographer, every photograph is a unique proof of identify, firmly declaring that human beings are ghosts.”
Bae Suah, Untold Night and Day

Han Kang
“Life is such a strange thing, she thinks, once she has stopped laughing. Even after certain things have happened to them, no matter how awful the experience, people still go on eating and drinking, going to the toilet and washing themselves - living, in other words. And sometimes they even laugh out loud. And they probably have these same thoughts, too, and when they do it must make them cheerlessly recall all the sadness they'd briefly managed to forget.”
Han Kang, The Vegetarian

Susan Sontag
“In place of a hermeneutics we need an erotics of art.”
Susan Sontag, Against Interpretation and Other Essays

Haruki Murakami
“Each memory was now the shadow of a shadow of a shadow. The only thing that remained tangible to him was the sense of absence.”
Haruki murakami, Tony Takitani
