Hanya Yanagihara
“You won’t understand what I mean now, but someday you will: the only trick of friendship, I think, is to find people who are better than you are—not smarter, not cooler, but kinder, and more generous, and more forgiving—and then to appreciate them for what they can teach you, and to try to listen to them when they tell you something about yourself, no matter how bad—or good—it might be, and to trust them, which is the hardest thing of all. But the best, as well.”
Hanya Yanagihara, A Little Life

Patti Smith
“Freedom is...the right to write the wrong words.”
Patti Smith

J.K. Rowling
“Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

Banana Yoshimoto
“No matter what, I want to continue living with the awareness that I will die. Without that, I am not alive.”
Banana Yoshimoto, Kitchen

Patti Smith
“Why can't I write something that would awake the dead? That pursuit is what burns most deeply.”
Patti Smith, Just Kids
