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

Han Kang
“Standing at this border where land and water meet, watching the seemingly endless recurrence of the waves (though this eternity is in fact illusion: the earth will one day vanish, everything will one day vanish), the fact that our lives are no more than brief instants is felt with unequivocal clarity.”
Han Kang, The White Book

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

Agatha Christie
“That's peace - real peace. To come to the end - not to have to go on... Yes, peace.”
Agatha Christie, And Then There Were None
