Emily St. John Mandel
“—and my point is, there’s always something. I think, as a species, we have a desire to believe that we’re living at the climax of the story. It’s a kind of narcissism. We want to believe that we’re uniquely important, that we’re living at the end of history, that now, after all these millennia of false alarms, now is finally the worst that it’s ever been, that finally we have reached the end of the world.”
Emily St. John Mandel, Sea of Tranquility

Madeline Miller
“I would say, some people are like constellations that only touch the earth for a season.”
Madeline Miller, Circe

Louis Adamic
“My grandfather always said that living is like licking honey off a thorn.”
Louis Adamic

Pablo Neruda
“I love you as one loves certain dark things, secretly, between the shadow and the soul.”
Pablo Neruda, 100 Love Sonnets

Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“My Uncle Alex, who is up in Heaven now, one of the things he found objectionable about human beings was that they so rarely noticed it when times were sweet. We could be drinking lemonade in the shade of an apple tree in the summertime, and Uncle Alex would interrupt the conversation to say, "If this isn't nice, what is?"

So I hope that you will do the same for the rest of your lives. When things are going sweetly and peacefully, please pause a moment, and then say out loud, "If this isn't nice, what is?”
Kurt Vonnegut, If This Isn't Nice, What Is?: Advice for the Young
