Carson McCullers
“For in a swift radiance of illumination he saw a glimpse of human struggle and valor. Of the endless fluid passage of the humanity through endless time. And of those who labor and of those who - one word- love. His soul expanded. But for a moment only. For in him, he felt a warning, a shaft of terror.”
Carson McCullers, The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter

James Baldwin
“There are people in the world for whom "coming along" is a perpetual process, people who are destined never to arrive.”
James Baldwin, Go Tell It on the Mountain

Simone Weil
“Denial of Saint Peter. To say to Christ: ‘I will never deny Thee’ was to deny him already, for it was supposing the source of faithfulness to be in himself and not in grace.”
Simone Weil, Gravity And Grace

Fernando Sabino
“In the end, everything will be okay. If it's not okay, it's not yet the end. ~Fernando Sabino, translated from Portuguese”
Fernando Sabino

Elif Batuman
“Wasn't that itself the miracle--that love really was an obscure and unfathomable connection between individuals, and not an economic contest where everyone was matched up according to how quantifiably lovable they were?”
Elif Batuman, The Idiot
