David Wojnarowicz
“Transition is always a relief. Destination means death to me. If I could figure out a way to remain forever in transition, in the disconnected and unfamiliar, I could remain in a state of perpetual freedom.”
David Wojnarowicz, Close to the Knives: A Memoir of Disintegration

Joan Didion
“Marriage is memory, marriage is time. Marriage is not only time: it is also, parodoxically, the denial of time.”
Joan Didion, The Year of Magical Thinking

Vikram Seth
“But I was her first love, as she was mine. Nor have I ever been in love since. But then I have never fallen out of love with her – with her, I suppose, as she then was, or as I grew afterwards to realize or imagine she had been. What is she now, who is she now? Am I with such inane fidelity fixated on someone who could have utterly changed (but could she have? could she really have changed so much?), who could have grown to hate me for leaving her, who could have forgotten me or learned deliberately to expunge me from her mind. How many seconds or weeks after seeing me…did I survive her thoughts?”
Vikram Seth, An Equal Music

Vikram Seth
“The past is the past, and he can't make amends, only hope that the gain will outlast the damage.”
Vikram Seth, An Equal Music

Brandon Sanderson
“How . . .” Dalinar said. “You fell into a chasm!”
“I fell face-first, sir,” Kaladin said, “and fortunately, I’m particularly hard-headed.”
Brandon Sanderson, Words of Radiance
