Mrs. Oliphant
“He was highly spoken of, everybody knew; but nobody knew who had spoken highly of him…”
Margaret Oliphant, The Rector

Shirley Jackson
“I wonder if I could eat a child if I had the chance.'
'I doubt if I could cook one,' said Constance.”
Shirley Jackson, We Have Always Lived in the Castle

“Long before we had writing or farms or post-digital strike helicopters, we had each other. We lived together and changed each other, and so we needed to say “this is who I am, this is what I do.”

So, in the same way that we attached sounds to meanings to make language, we began to attach clusters of behavior to signal social roles. Those clusters were rich, and quick-changing, and so just like language, we needed networks devoted to processing them. We needed a place in the brain to construct and to analyze gender.”
Isabel Fall

Shirley Jackson
“When Jim Donell thought of something to say he said it as often and in as many ways as possible, perhaps because he had very few ideas and had to wring each one dry.”
Shirley Jackson, We Have Always Lived in the Castle

Jonathan  Dunne
“The human being is not being human.”
Jonathan Dunne, Finding Jesus
