“harm I caused you both. But I give you this, this gift that our dead friend here gave me. He hands her the packet. She opens the sheaf of paper and starts to read. A few words in, and she cries out in pain.”
― Richard Powers, Playground

“As you made your way through life, there were people who stuck, the ones who stayed around forever and whom you came to need as much as you needed water or air. Others were meant to keep you company for a time. In the moment, you rarely knew which would be which.”
― J. Courtney Sullivan, Friends and Strangers

“Every so often, life offers you a reset button. When it does, you need to press it as hard as you can. Jane said that to me once. Back in our reading-on-her-bed days, when I was too young to understand what she meant. Now I do.”
― Riley Sager, Lock Every Door

“The smells of smoke and vinegar made him hungry; all he’d had for lunch was a peanut-butter-and-raisin sandwich.”
― Anne Tyler, Redhead by the Side of the Road

“But what we need are readers. Right? Where would writers be without readers? Who are they going to write for? And actors, what are they without an audience? Actors, painters, dancers, comedians, even just ordinary people doing ordinary things, what are they without an audience of some sort? “See, that’s what I do. I am the audience. I am the witness. I am the great appreciator,”
― Elizabeth Berg, The Story of Arthur Truluv
