R.F. Kuang
“That's just what translation is, I think. That's all speaking is. Listening to the other and trying to see past your own biases to glimpse what they're trying to say. Showing yourself to the world, and hoping someone else understands.”
R.F. Kuang, Babel

Lucy Jane Wood
“Fate can't be twisted and turned as you like. What's meant for you is meant, no matter which turn you take or hurdle you stumble at, you'll always end up on the path that's meant for you.”
Lucy Jane Wood, Rewitched

Ta-Nehisi Coates
“But we must tell our stories, and not be ensnared by them.”
Ta-Nehisi Coates, The Water Dancer

“Language was just difference. A thousand different ways of seeing, of moving through the world. No, a thousand worlds within one. And translation, a necessary endeavor however futile, to move between them.”
R.J. Kuang

“Als je beseft dat iets niet het juiste pad voor je is, dan is het tijdverspilling om er toch domweg op te blijven lopen.”
Judith Visser, Zondagskind
