“There is always a peculiar distance to fairy tales. They are denuded of urgency, rinsed of true horror even as the words relish in gore. Love is presented to us as something that must be as vast as a horizon and just as unreachable.”
― Roshani Chokshi, The Last Tale of the Flower Bride

“The ocean and I were raised as twins, and it seemed clear to me which twin was preferred. As soon as I could walk, I was made to swim. As soon as I could swim, I could hold my breath in brutal autumn water, perform somersaults and handstands in the spring. All of my clean socks were filled with sand. You could taste the water on me, on my skin and in dank locks of my hair. When I was small and bored in church, I would sometimes lick myself for the taste of brine and in that way I came to associate the taste of salt with the taste of God.”
― Genevieve Jagger, Fragile Animals
