Placelessness Quotes

“A few moments into the ride, I saw Reynaldo's figure down the road, walking erectly, holding something. Seeing him there, amid the banana trees and huts and roadside stands with petrol in Coke bottles, I felt a distinct envy: he belonged here, in this place. He strode with a correctness and security I knew I would never feel in this country.

Which was fine. Displacement, it was a valid way to live.”
― Glenn Diaz, The Quiet Ones
