Marie-Helene Bertino
“Anyone questioning whether god exists need only consider the brevity of a dog’s life span. If there was a god, let alone a benevolent one, dogs would have life spans similar to parrots.”
Marie-Helene Bertino, Beautyland

Richard Flanagan
“Though I tried to be honest, it was still happening and so it was dishonest. That’s what I couldn’t see then that I see now, that though it happened then it’s still happening now and it won’t ever stop happening, and that writing about it, that writing about anything, can’t be an opinion about what happened as if it had already happened when it is still happening, still unintelligible, still mysterious, and all writing is trapped in tenses when life isn’t.”
Richard Flanagan, Question 7

Daniel       Mason
“History haunts him who does not honour it.”
Daniel Mason, North Woods

Richard Flanagan
“What remained was either silence or lies. Such as: the convicts and their children had all fled to the mainland during the gold rushes. Such as: the Tasmanian Aboriginal people were extinct, long gone, not one left on the island. Such as: everyone was descended from free settlers, not a touch of the tar brush or the convict stain on any of us.”
Richard Flanagan, Question 7

Kaveh Akbar
“When I say “nations,” I mean “armed marketplaces.” Always.”
Kaveh Akbar, Martyr!
