Claire Dederer
“Genius is the name we give our love when we don’t want to argue about it; when we want our opinion to become fact. When we want to push our obsession onto the next guy. When we don’t want to hold our heroes accountable.”
Claire Dederer, Monsters: A Fan's Dilemma

Maryse Condé
“Solitude is my companion. She has cradled and nourished me. She has never left me up to this very day. People talk and talk but they don’t know what it’s like to emerge burning hot from the stone-cold womb of your mother, to say farewell to her from the very first moment you enter this world.”
Maryse Condé, Crossing the Mangrove

Magda Szabó
“I did love you. I haven’t told you very often and I have never known how to show it. But I did love you.”
Magda Szabó, The Fawn

Tove Ditlevsen
“Every person has their own truth just as every child has their own childhood.”
Tove Ditlevsen, The Copenhagen Trilogy

Tove Ditlevsen
“And I want so badly to own my own time instead of always having to sell it.”
Tove Ditlevsen, Childhood, Youth, Dependency
