Gerald Brenan
“The Spanish economic system is like a game of musical chairs, in which there are only half as many seats as there are performers.”
Gerald Brenan, The Face of Spain

Afia Atakora
“It was folly to think that she was the only one that had ever had any secrets.”
Afia Atakora, Conjure Women

Katherine May
“When I’m stressed, it feels like my brain has turned to porridge and it’s coming out of my ears. The drugs for my bipolar never really stopped that. Cold water does.”
Katherine May, Wintering: The Power of Rest and Retreat in Difficult Times

Taylor Jenkins Reid
“That is the fastest way to ruin a woman's reputation, after all - to imply that she has not adequately threaded the needle that is being sexually satisfying without ever appearing to desire sexual satisfaction.”
Taylor Jenkins Reid, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo

Katherine May
“Doing those deeply unfashionable things—slowing down, letting your spare time expand, getting enough sleep, resting—is a radical act now, but it is essential. This is a crossroads we all know, a moment when you need to shed a skin. If you do, you’ll expose all those painful nerve endings and feel so raw that you’ll need to take care of yourself for a while. If you don’t, then that skin will harden around you.”
Katherine May, Wintering: The Power of Rest and Retreat in Difficult Times
