“I hate coffee,” she says. “What about—” “I hate that, too.”

Lorraine Hansberry
“MAMA: You must not dislike people ’cause they well off, honey.

BENEATHA: Why not? It makes just as much sense as disliking people ’cause they are poor, and lots of people do that.”
Lorraine Hansberry, A Raisin in the Sun

Kōtarō Isaka
“Nanao can’t escape this thought: if it happened once it can happen again, and if it happened twice it can happen three times, and if three times then four, so we might as well say that if something happens once it’ll keep happening forever.”
Kōtarō Isaka, Bullet Train

Kōtarō Isaka
“Probably nothing going on inside', thinks Tangerine. Often the case with people who don’t read fiction. Hollow inside, monochrome, so they can switch gears no problem. They swallow something and forget about it as soon as it good down their throats. Constitutionally incapable of empathy. These are the people who most need to read, but in most cases it’s too late.”
Kotaro Isaka, Bullet Train

Carlo Rovelli
“Past and future are different from each other. Cause precedes effect. Pain comes after a wound, not before it. The glass shatters into a thousand pieces, and the pieces do not re-form into a glass. We cannot change the past; we can have regrets, remorse, memories. The future instead is uncertainty, desire, anxiety, open space, destiny, perhaps. We can live toward it, shape it, because it does not yet exist. Everything is still possible... Time is not a line with two equal directions: it is an arrow with different extremities.”
Carlo Rovelli, L'ordine del tempo

Victoria Schwab
“Three words, large enough to tip the world. I remember you.”
V.E. Schwab, The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue
