Kaveh Akbar
“Love was a room that appeared when you stepped into it.”
Kaveh Akbar, Martyr!

Adrian Tchaikovsky
“He had bred them and mutated them and played all sorts of God, and now they wanted to know why and he had no answer.”
Adrian Tchaikovsky, Children of Ruin

Kaveh Akbar
“Eight of the ten commandments are about what thou shalt not. But you can live a whole life not doing any of that stuff and still avoid doing any good. That’s the whole crisis. The rot at the root of everything. The belief that goodness is built on a constructed absence, not-doing. That belief corrupts everything, has everyone with any power sitting on their hands.”
Kaveh Akbar, Martyr!

Kaveh Akbar
“Do you have this organ here?” Cyrus asked her, pointing at the base of his throat. “A doom organ that just pulses all the time? Pulses dread, every day, obstinately? Like it thinks there’s a panther behind the curtain ready to maul you, but there’s no panther and it turns out there’s no curtain either? That’s what I wanted to stop.”
Kaveh Akbar, Martyr!

Kaveh Akbar
“Expendable” may seem a bad word to use to describe your own life, except I actually find it liberating. The way it vents away all pressure to become. How it asks only that you be.”
Kaveh Akbar, Martyr!
