“There are moments that cry out to be fulfilled.
Like, telling someone you love them.
Or giving your money away, all of it.

when headlong might save a life,
even, possibly, your own.”
― Mary Oliver, Felicity

“The problem, she’s starting to understand, is that a man will never let you fall completely into hell. He will scoop you up right before you drop the final inch so that you cannot blame him for sending you there. He keeps you in a dinerlike purgatory instead, waiting and hoping and taking orders.”
― Lisa Taddeo, Three Women

“What a fine persecution—to be kept intrigued without ever quite being enlightened.”
― Tom Stoppard, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead
