“Stars, hide your fires; Let not light see my black and deep desires.”
― William Shakespeare, Macbeth

“The most beautiful novel is the one that starts with a sentence wholly unexpected by the reader who has lived through our storms and norms, and who might once have been the cause of our changing moods.”
― Ahlam Mosteghanemi

“In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer.

And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger – something better, pushing right back.”

“...it doesn’t mean the world will change. There will still be those who will continue to be beaten in silence, and those who will continue to die in silence.
But maybe there will also be those who will survive. And I want to be able to have as little shame as possible when I stand before those who do.”
― Bora Chung, Your Utopia
