Elsa Morante
“La cattiva matrona, la guastafeste, la perfida moglie, io non posso vederla che coi miei occhi di bambina: eccola, rifulgente nella sua stola ricamata, nelle sue pietre preziose, nobile e bella come una Nostra Signora orientale. I suoi cattivi pensieri le splendono intorno al capo come un’aureola; e i desideri turpi e disumani che la trafiggono mi paiono spade sante.”
Elsa Morante, Menzogna e sortilegio

Zadie Smith
“The past is always tense, the future perfect.”
Zadie Smith

Sally Rooney
“It was culture as class performance, literature fetishised for its ability to take educated people on false emotional journeys, so that they might afterwards feel superior to the uneducated people whose emotional journeys they liked to read about.”
Sally Rooney, Normal People

Ann Leckie
“Thoughts are ephemeral, they evaporate in the moment they occur, unless they are given action and material form. Wishes and intentions, the same. Meaningless, unless they impel you to one choice or another, some deed or course of action, however insignificant. Thoughts that lead to action can be dangerous. Thoughts that do not, mean less than nothing.”
Ann Leckie, Ancillary Justice

Catherynne M. Valente
“That's how you get deathless, volchitsa. Walk the same tale over and over, until you wear a groove in the world, until even if you vanished, the tale would keep turning, keep playing, like a phonograph, and you'd have to get up again, even with a bullet through your eye, to play your part and say your lines.”
Catherynne M. Valente, Deathless
