""The American Embassy" is both a beacon and a barrier to those fleeing persecution. What evidence does a grieving mother have to prove her home has placed a target on her back? How can cold bureaucracy empathize and sacrifice to save a life? What are these laws and borders but excuses to shrug?" Feb 10, 2026 07:47PM

Book cover for My Sister, the Serial Killer
I was tempted to pray, to beg that no door be opened as we journeyed from door to lift, but I am fairly certain that those are exactly the types of prayers He doesn’t answer.
Keren
I love this line. I feel like so many "prayers" are focused on individual desire/need rather than the good of the world or society.

Patrick Rothfuss
“It's like everyone tells a story about themselves inside their own head. Always. All the time. That story makes you what you are. We build ourselves out of that story.”
Patrick Rothfuss, The Name of the Wind

Rosa Luxemburg
“What presents itself to us as bourgeois legality is nothing but the violence of the ruling class, a violence raised to an obligatory norm from the outset.”
Rosa Luxemburg

Emilie Buchwald
“Children are made readers on the laps of their parents.”
Emilie Buchwald

C.S. Lewis
“A children's story that can only be enjoyed by children is not a good children's story in the slightest.”
C.S. Lewis

Brooke Hampton
“I am not delicate.
I am skinny dipping at 2am;
I am dancing naked under the full moon and playing in the mud.
I am the reverberating echoes of a curse word ricocheting off the steeply sloping mountain you thought I couldn’t climb;
I am bare skin in the deepest depths of winter; I am the song of courage, and the melody of freedom you long to sing.
I am a fearless mother.
I am a passionate lover; a devoted friend.
I am the healer, the witch, the nurturing of your wounds.
I am the heat of a wildfire, the rage of a storm.
I am strong.
Delicate things are pretty-cute, even.
But I am not delicate.
I am wild, fierce and unpredictable.
I am breathtaking.
I am beautiful.
I am sacred.”
Brooke Hampton
