“We need not worry, our leaders tell us. We are a resilient people. We need only summon that strength now. Will someone please tell them that resilience is not a thing to be trotted out in trying times like a kind of prized pony? As the gifted Haitian American writer Edwidge Danticat puts it, just because people are resilient doesn't mean they can suffer more than others.”
Julian Aguon, No Country for Eight-Spot Butterflies: A Lyric Essay

Sarah Vowell
“Garfield must have giggled jotting down the admonition to remember that political offices "were created, not for the benefit of incumbents or their supporters, but for the service of the Government.”
Sarah Vowell, Assassination Vacation

Ande Pliego
“Sometimes the art of fiction isn't in how intellectual it is, but how well it makes you actually forget the world around you. Sometimes, binge reading to escape reality can save a person's life.”
Ande Pliego, You Are Fatally Invited

Fredrik Backman
“How many damn books have you actually read?”
“Not nearly enough,” he smiles.”
Fredrik Backman, My Friends

Hwang Bo-Reum
“A life surrounded by good people is a successful life. It might not be success as defined by society, but thanks to the people around you, each day is a successful day'.”
Hwang Bo-reum, Welcome to the Hyunam-Dong Bookshop
