― Nalo Hopkinson, Sister Mine

“I’d rather be indebted than be the kind of white man who thinks the world owes him, because to live an ethical life is to be held accountable to history.”

“Like the rich boarding school kid who gets away with a hit-and-run, getting away with it doesn’t mean that you’re lawless but that you are above the law. The bad-boy artist can do whatever he wants because of who he is.

― Cathy Park Hong, Minor Feelings: An Asian American Reckoning

“We are surrounded by story.”
― Alice McDermott
