“I did crave attention, but I refused to humiliate myself by asking for it.”
― Ottessa Moshfegh, My Year of Rest and Relaxation

“The most important things are the hardest things to say. They are the things you get ashamed of, because words diminish them - words shrink things that seem limitless when they were in your head to no more than living size when they're brought out.”
― Stephen King, The Body

“Sleep felt productive. Something was getting sorted out. I knew in my heart—this was, perhaps, the only thing my heart knew back then—that when I'd slept enough, I'd be okay. I'd be renewed, reborn. I would be a whole new person, every one of my cells regenerated enough times that the old cells were just distant, foggy memories. My past life would be but a dream, and I could start over without regrets, bolstered by the bliss and serenity that I would have accumulated in my year of rest and relaxation.”
― Ottessa Moshfegh, My Year of Rest and Relaxation

“Srnina im smrt otkrila novi svijet duševni: misli i želje nikad neoćućene i sasvim različne nego što su u njih prije bivale.
Pojmili su da sve duše nijesu iste niti svaki život kao njihov; da ima nešto u ljudskim dušama izvan briga za novcem i hranjenjem, te da to - nešto - može biti jače od straha smrti.”
― Dinko Šimunović, Duga
