Curtis Sittenfeld
“There are people we treat wrong and later we're prepared to treat other people right. Perhaps this sounds mercenary, but I feel grateful for these trial relationships, and I would like to think it all evens out - surely, unknowingly, I have served as practice for other people.”
Curtis Sittenfeld, Prep

Denis Johnson
“We’d torn open our chests and shown our cowardly hearts, and you can never stay friends after something like that”
Denis Johnson, Jesus’ Son

Teju Cole
“I became aware of just how fleeting the sense of happiness was, and how flimsy its basis: a warm restaurant after having come in from the rain, the smell of food and wine, interesting conversation, daylight falling weakly on the polished cherrywood of the tables. It took so little to move the mood from one level to another, as one might push pieces on a chessboard. Even to be aware of this, in the midst of a happy moment, was to push one of those pieces, and to become slightly less happy.”
Teju Cole, Open City

Curtis Sittenfeld
“I always worried someone would notice me, and then when no one did, I felt lonely.”
Curtis Sittenfeld, Prep

Susan Choi
“And right away her gaze went hard with the anger we always feel at the person who spoils our idea of ourself.”
Susan Choi, Trust Exercise
