Gabrielle Squailia
“Absolutes are the hallucinations of culture.”
Gabrielle Squailia, Viscera

Frances Hardinge
“Children are little priests of their parents, watching their every gesture and expression for signs of their divine will.”
Frances Hardinge, A Skinful of Shadows

Andrea Gibson
“Let me say right now for the record,
I’m still going to be here
asking this world to dance,
even if it keeps stepping on my holy feet.

You, you stay here with me, okay?
You stay here with me.

Raising your bite against the bitter dark,
your bright longing,
your brilliant fists of loss.
Friend, if the only thing we have to gain in staying is each other,
my god that is plenty
my god that is enough
my god that is so so much for the light to give
each of us at each other’s backs
whispering over and over and over,
“Live. Live. Live.”
Andrea Gibson, The Madness Vase

Frances Hardinge
What strange beasts people are, she thought. We adjust to everything so quickly. Perhaps we would even get used to Hell.
Frances Hardinge, A Skinful of Shadows

Frances Hardinge
“If someone throws aside their pride and begs with all their heart, and if they do so in vain, then they are never quite the same person afterwards. Something in them dies, and something else comes to life.”
Frances Hardinge, A Skinful of Shadows
