Natasha Pulley
“Do you ever feel like your whole life happened to you in languages you don't speak anymore?”
Natasha Pulley, The Hymn to Dionysus

Martha Wells
“It’s weird how meal and sleep breaks fix a lot of the annoying things about humans. Maybe that’s how you restart an organic brain?”
Martha Wells, Platform Decay

Angela Garbes
“More than in any other human relationship, overwhelmingly more, motherhood means being instantly interruptible,” wrote Tillie Olsen in 1968.”
Angela Garbes, Essential Labor: Mothering as Social Change

Kaveh Akbar
“Each giraffe had the long eyelashes of horses, and those same sad eyes, like they knew they weren’t made for this world. Or worse, like they knew they were.”
Kaveh Akbar, Martyr!

Miranda July
“With a partner you had the story of how you met, choosing each other out of everyone in the world, and the years together were chaptered with joint decisions - no one could ever say it was all a dream; both parties were accountable. Not so with a child. For the child it WAS a dream. And the unpunctuated days into years moved much more quickly (for the parent), so all one could do was free-fall through the chaos, madly making sandwiches and washing hair and hope that there would be some ritual, some time for reflection, at the end.”
Miranda July, All Fours
