“No one loves a city like one born to it, and no one loves a city like an immigrant. No one loves a city like they do when they are young, and no one loves a city like they do when they are old.

― Nghi Vo, The City in Glass

“And when you open your heart to rewilding a landscape, the truth is, you’re opening your heart to rewilding yourself.”

“It’s a midnight lie... a kind of lie told for someone else’s sake, a lie that sits between goodness and wrong, just as midnight is the moment between night and morning.”
