Anne Berest
“Go to the theater, to museums, and to concerts as often as possible; it gives you a healthy glow.”
Anne Berest, Audrey Diwan, Caroline de Maigret, Sophie Mas, How to Be Parisian Wherever You Are: Love, Style, and Bad Habits

G.K. Chesterton
“Because children have abounding vitality, because they are in spirit fierce and free, therefore they want things repeated and unchanged. They always say, "Do it again"; and the grown-up person does it again until he is nearly dead. For grown-up people are not strong enough to exult in monotony. But perhaps God is strong enough to exult in monotony. It is possible that God says every morning, "Do it again" to the sun; and every evening, "Do it again" to the moon. It may not be automatic necessity that makes all daisies alike; it may be that God makes every daisy separately, but has never got tired of making them. It may be that He has the eternal appetite of infancy; for we have sinned and grown old, and our Father is younger than we.”

Like they’ve all gone on and you’re there still, holding on to this person you’re supposed to let go of.”
Julia Armfield, Our Wives Under the Sea

Julia Armfield
“I used to think there was such a thing as emptiness, that there were places in the world one could go and be alone. This, I think, is still true, but the error in my reasoning was to assume that alone was somewhere you could go, rather than somewhere you had to be left.”
Julia Armfield, Our Wives Under the Sea

Emma Cline
“At that age, I was, first and foremost, a thing to be judged, and that shifted the power in every interaction onto the other person. The”
