Book cover for Bright Young Women
Time does not heal all wounds. Grief is just like a sink full of dirty dishes or a pile of soiled laundry. Grief is a chore you have to do, and it’s a messy one, at that.”

Kaliane Bradley
“Forgiveness, which takes you back to the person you were and lets you reset them. Hope, which exists in a future in which you are new. Forgiveness and hope are miracles. They let you change your life. They are time-travel.”
Kaliane Bradley, The Ministry of Time

“I don’t like knowing people in the context of things. "Oh, that’s the person I work out with. That’s the person I’m in a book club with. That’s the person I did that show with." Because once the context ends, so does the friendship”
Jennette McCurdy, I'm Glad My Mom Died

Lisa See
“It takes a lifetime to make a friend, but you can lose one in an hour,” she recites. “Life without a friend is life without sun. Life without a friend is death.”
Lisa See, Lady Tan's Circle of Women

Olivia Laing
“It wasn't a feeling that had a source, except in the way the source of hay fever is flowers.”
Olivia Laing, Crudo

Etaf Rum
“She knew that the suffering of women started in the suffering of men, that the bondages of one became the bondages of the other.”
Etaf Rum, A Woman Is No Man
