Rick Rubin
“Of all the great works that we can experience, nature is the most absolute and enduring. We can witness it change through the seasons. We can see it in the mountains, the oceans, the deserts, and the forest. We can watch the changes of the moon each night, and the relationship between the moon and the stars.”
Rick Rubin, The Creative Act: A Way of Being

R. Eric Thomas
“Aren't we all human people walking around with all of our experiences, all of our sadness, and joy, and grief, and hope, and fear barely contained by our skin and our adherence to decorum? I'm not saying I want to walk around feeling all the time publicly, but it seems a waste of life to never go to the depths and see what's there. And what's there is the truth.”
R. Eric Thomas, Congratulations, the Best is Over!

Sloane Crosley
“While I wait for the police to come, I call Russell to confess what happened. He is my favorite person, the one who somehow sees me both as I want to be seen and as I actually am, the one whose belief in me over the years has been the most earned (he is not my parent), the most pure (he is not my boyfriend), and the most forgiving (he is my friend).”
Sloane Crosley, Grief Is for People

Hua Hsu
“When you’re young, you do so many things hoping to be noticed. The way you dress or stand, the music played loud enough to catch the attention of another person who might know a song, too. And then there are things you do as you step out into the world, the real world full of strange adults, testing out what it means to be generous or thoughtful. In that instant, before every memory was placed along some narrative arc, before the act of remembering took on a desperate air, I simply felt lucky enough to witness something so effortlessly kind - to see my friend do something that was good.”
Hua Hsu, Stay True

Lily King
“I have loved you all my life,' I whisper. 'See you after the next bang.”
Lily King, Heart the Lover
