David Bellos
“Translation is the opposite of empire”
David Bellos, Is That a Fish in Your Ear? Translation and the Meaning of Everything

Albert Camus
“Il y a dans les hommes plus de choses à admirer que de choses à mépriser. (There are more things to admire in men than to despise.)”
Albert Camus

Rudy Francisco
“Most of what I know

I've learned from falling,
from placing the brighter side
of my hands against the earth
and pressing until vertical.

The ground has taught me
more about flight

than the sky ever could.”
Rudy Francisco, I'll Fly Away

Lydia Davis
“When you think you will not remember something, you write it down, either in a notebook or on a handy piece of paper. You have many pieces of paper all over the house and in all sorts of pockets and bags with things written on them that you either don’t remember or do, also, remember—either do not have in your mind also or do have in your mind also. So the pieces of paper with writing on them supplement the living tissue of your memory, as though your usable, active memory goes beyond the bounds of your head out onto these pieces of paper.”
Lydia Davis, Essays One

R.F. Kuang
“War doesn't determine who's right. War determines who remains.”
