Annie Ernaux
“To exist is to drink oneself without thirst.”
Annie Ernaux, Les Années

Sigrid Nunez
“If reading really does increase empathy, as we are constantly being told that it does, it appears that writing takes some away.”
Sigrid Nunez, The Friend

Sándor Márai
“We all of us must come to terms with what and who we are, and recognize that this wisdom is not going to earn us any praise, that life is not going to pin a medal on us for recognizing and enduring our own vanity or egoism or baldness or our potbelly.”
Sandor Marai, Embers

W.G. Sebald
“This then, I thought, as I looked round about me, is the representation of history. It requires a falsification of perspective. We, the survivors, see everything from above, see everything at once, and still we do not know how it was.”
W.G. Sebald, The Rings of Saturn

Clarice Lispector
“A note exists between two notes of music, between two facts exists a fact, between two grains of sand no matter how close together there exists an interval of space, a sense that exists between senses — in the interstices of primordial matter is the line of mystery and fire that is the breathing of the world, and the continual breathing of the world is what we hear and call silence.”
Clarice Lispector, The Passion According to G.H.
