Sylvia Plath
“The reason I hadn't washed my clothes or my hair was because it seemed so silly.
I saw the days of the year stretching ahead like a series of bright, white boxes, and separating one box from another was sleep, like a black shade. Only for me, the long perspective of shades that set off one box from the next bad suddenly snapped up, and I could see day after day after day glaring ahead of me like a white, broad, infinitely desolate avenue.
It seemed silly to wash one day when I would only have to wash it again the next.
It made me tired just to think of it.
I wanted to do everything once and for all and be through with it.”
Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar

Sylvia Plath
“There must be quite a few things a hot bath won't cure, but I don't know many of them. Whenever I'm sad I'm going to die, or so nervous I can't sleep, or in love with somebody I won't be seeing for a week, I slump down just so far and say: 'I'll go take a hot bath...' I never feel so much myself as when I'm in a hot bath.”
Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar

Marjane Satrapi
“In life you'll meet a lot of jerks. If they hurt you, tell yourself that it's because they're stupid. That will help keep you from reacting to their cruelty. Because there is nothing worse than bitterness and vengeance... Always keep your dignity and be true to yourself.”
Marjane Satrapi, Persepolis: The Story of a Childhood

Ted Conover
“Among the tramps were some real bruisers, that was certain, but there were also men who had been badly bruised.”
Ted Conover, Rolling Nowhere: Riding the Rails with America's Hoboes

Barbara Kingsolver
“I think what you mean is a totally different phobia. Fear that the things you imagine will turn real.”
Barbara Kingsolver, The Bean Trees
