Alexandra Bracken
“How do you fight against a mountain? How do you move it when you don't even have a shovel?”
“Maybe you don't have to move it,” Etta said, folding the gown over the lid of the trunk. “Maybe you have to climb it.”
Alexandra Bracken, Passenger

John Darnielle
“Good things never last, bad things never die.”
John Darnielle, Master of Reality
