Michael Ondaatje
“From this point on, she whispered, we will either find or lose our souls.”
Michael Ondaatje, The English Patient

Garth Greenwell
“That's the worst thing about teaching, that our actions either have no force at all or have force beyond all intention, and not only our actions but our failures to act, gestures and words held back or unspoken, all we might have done and failed to do; and, more than this, that the consequences echo across years and silence, we can never really know what we've done.”
Garth Greenwell, Cleanness

Barbara Grizzuti Harrison
“We are all proprietary toward cities we love. 'Ah, you should have seen her when I loved her!' we say, reciting glories since faded or defiled, trusting her to no one else; that others should know and love her in her present fallen state (for she must fall without our vigilant love) is a species of betrayal.”
Barbara Grizzuti Harrison

Jay Caspian Kang
“Love and cities are always inextricably entwined. There's no restaurant or corner store or run-down dive in any city that doesn't double as a monument for a lost love. I think that's why we always stop and stare whenever we come across a girl crying in public. We sense the imprint of a memory being pressed onto the sidewalk, onto the building contours, onto the names of the streets.”
Jay Caspian Kang, The Dead Do Not Improve

Louise Glück
“I think here I will leave you. It has come to seem
there is no perfect ending.
Indeed, there are infinite endings.
Or perhaps, once one begins,
there are only endings.”
Louise Glück, Faithful and Virtuous Night
