Charlotte McConaghy
“But there won't be any more journeys after this one, no more oceans explored. And maybe that's why I am filled with calm. My life has been a migration without a destination, and that in itself is senseless. I leave for no reason, just to be moving, and it breaks my heart a thousand times, a million. It's a relief to at last have a purpose. I wonder what it will feel like to stop. I wonder where we go, afterwards, and if we are followed. I suspect we go nowhere, and become nothing, and the only thing that saddens me about this is the idea of never seeing Niall again. We are, all of us, given such a brieft moment of time together, it hardly seems fair. But it's precious, and maybe it's enough, and maybe it's right that our bodies dissolve into the earth, giving our energy back to it, feeding the little creatures in the ground and giving nutrients to the soil, and maybe it's right that our consciousness rests. The thought is peaceful.”
Charlotte McConaghy, Migrations

Hart Crane
“Forgetfulness is like a song
That, freed from beat and measure, wanders.
Forgetfulness is like a bird whose wings are reconciled,
Outspread and motionless, --
A bird that coasts the wind unwearyingly.

Forgetfulness is rain at night,
Or an old house in a forest, -- or a child.
Forgetfulness is white, -- white as a blasted tree,
And it may stun the sybil into prophecy,
Or bury the Gods.

I can remember much forgetfulness.”
Hart Crane

Mansi Shah
“The direction of the wind cannot be changed, but we can change the direction of our sails.”
Mansi Shah, The Direction of the Wind

Caleb Azumah Nelson
“Language fails us, and sometimes our parents do too. We all fail each other, sometimes small, sometimes big, but look, when we love we trust, and when we fail, we fracture that joint.”
Caleb Azumah Nelson, Open Water

Erik Pevernagie
“If the inner world splinters into pieces and we feel abandoned in the remains of a worn-out story, let us look up, discern new paths, and listen to the stirring, tingling sounds in the dense thicket of untrodden settings that we go across during our journey. ("Halt in flight")”
Erik Pevernagie
