Elif Batuman
“Wasn't that itself the miracle--that love really was an obscure and unfathomable connection between individuals, and not an economic contest where everyone was matched up according to how quantifiably lovable they were?”
Elif Batuman, The Idiot

Ottessa Moshfegh
“Oh, sleep. Nothing else could ever bring me such pleasure, such freedom, the power to feel and move and think and imagine, safe from the miseries of my waking consciousness.”
Ottessa Moshfegh, My Year of Rest and Relaxation

Bonnie Burstow
“Often father and daughter look down on mother (woman) together. They exchange meaningful glances when she misses a point. They agree that she is not bright as they are, cannot reason as they do. This collusion does not save the daughter from the mother’s fate.”
Bonnie Burstow, Radical Feminist Therapy: Working in the Context of Violence

Elif Batuman
“...real intimacy is a place where there are no mistakes, at least not in the sense you feel. You don't just blow everything with one wrong move. A friendship is a space where you're supposted and free to make mistakes.”
Elif Batuman, The Idiot

Ottessa Moshfegh
“I felt I needed to hide a little. My mind needed a smaller world to roam.”
Ottessa Moshfegh, Death in Her Hands
