Ocean Vuong
“How can we know, with a house full of bread, that it’s hunger, not people, that survives?”
Ocean Vuong, Time Is a Mother

Ocean Vuong
“Because everyone knows yellow pain, pressed into American letters, turns into gold. Our sorrow Midas touched. Napalm with a rainbow afterglow. Unlike feelings, blood gets realer when you feel it. I'm trying to be real but it costs too much.”
Ocean Vuong, Time Is a Mother

Elizabeth Acevedo
“Slighted things needed you to witness the wound you gave them.”
Elizabeth Acevedo

Ava Reid
“That was the cruelest irony: the more you did to save yourself, the less you became a person worth saving.”
Ava Reid, A Study in Drowning

Ocean Vuong
“Then it came to me, my life. I remembered my life
the way an ax handle, mid-swing, remembers the tree.
& I was free.”
Ocean Vuong, Time Is a Mother
