― Yaa Gyasi, Homegoing

“I apologize for anything I might have done. I was not myself.”

“She felt the panic rising in her then. She knew. She knew how quickly things could break. You did the things you could. You tended to the world for the world's sake. You hoped you would be safe.

She knew she wasn't true inside. She knew.”
― Patrick Rothfuss, The Slow Regard of Silent Things
