The Season of Risks by Susan Hubbard
" Wow. Is all I can say. "

“He said that academia reminded him of a badly run circus. The faculty members were like underfed animals -- weary of their cages, which were never large enough to begin with -- and they responded sluggishly to the whip. The trapeze artists fell with monotonous regularity into poorly strung nets. The clowns looked hungry. The tent leaked. The crowd was inattentive, shouting incoherently at inappropriate moments. And when the show was over, no one cheered.”
Susan Hubbard

“What's life without risk," my father said. "Nothing but mauvais foi [bad faith]" from The Society of S (p. 137).”
Susan Hubbard

“My father was right: people are always leaving. They fall in and out of your life like shadows.”
Susan Hubbard, The Society of S
