Book cover for How to Know a Person: The Art of Seeing Others Deeply and Being Deeply Seen
When I’m looking at you, and trying to know you, I’m going to want to ask you how your ancestors show up in your life. And if you are looking at me, you’ll want to ask how the past lives in me.

Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“Of course it is exhausting, having to reason all the time in a universe which wasn't meant to be reasonable.”
Kurt Vonnegut, Breakfast of Champions

John Green
“I’m a novelist, not a historian of medicine. TB is rare where I live. It doesn’t affect me. And that’s all true. But I hear Shreya, and Henry, and so many others calling to me: Marco. Marco. Marco.”
John Green, Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection

John Green
“When we know about suffering, when we are proximal to it, we are capable of extraordinary generosity. We can do so much for each other but only when we see one another in our full humanity, not as statistics or problems, but as people who deserve to be alive in the world.”
John Green, Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection

Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Write it on your heart
that every day is the best day in the year.
He is rich who owns the day, and no one owns the day
who allows it to be invaded with fret and anxiety.

Finish every day and be done with it.
You have done what you could.
Some blunders and absurdities, no doubt crept in.
Forget them as soon as you can, tomorrow is a new day;
begin it well and serenely, with too high a spirit
to be cumbered with your old nonsense.

This new day is too dear,
with its hopes and invitations,
to waste a moment on the yesterdays.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson, Collected Poems and Translations

“Do your thing and don't care if they like it.”
Tina Fey, Bossypants
