Book cover for The Beach House
And then, before you know it, you will be like me—an old woman, alone and willing to trade anything and everything for one soft evening such as this with her babies once again.

Alice Hoffman
“But rules were never the point. It was finding out who you were.”
Alice Hoffman, The Rules of Magic

Alice Hoffman
“This is what happens when you repudiate who you are. Once you do that, life works against you, and your fate is no longer your own.”
Alice Hoffman, The Rules of Magic

Colson Whitehead
“You can change the law but you can’t change people and how they treat each other.”
Colson Whitehead, The Nickel Boys

Colson Whitehead
“We must believe in our souls that we are somebody, that we are significant, that we are worthful, and we must walk the streets of life every day with this sense of dignity and this sense of somebody-ness.”
Colson Whitehead, The Nickel Boys

Ben Fountain
“If ever there was a prime-time trigger for PTSD you couldn't do much better than this, but lucky for Norm, the crowd, America, the forty-million-plus TV viewing audience, Bravos can deal, oh yes! Pupils dilated, pulse and blood pressure through the roof, limbs trembling with stress-reflex cortisol rush, but it's cool, it's good, their shit's down tight, no Vietnam-vet crackups for Bravo squad! You can march these boys straight into sound-and-light show hell and Bravos can deal, but damn, isn't it rude to put them through it.”
Ben Fountain, Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk
