Chanel Miller, Magnolia Wu Unfolds It All

“When I first learned about the Dewey decimal system, I assumed it was an impartial way of defining and filing the breadth of knowable information.

R. Eric Thomas, Here for It; Or, How to Save Your Soul in America: Essays

“In a fractured national moment of stress and pain, of inequality and injustice, of ethical strain and Moral Exhaustion, we should go easy on ourselves at moments when we fail in our quest to become better people.

Michael Schur, How to Be Perfect: The Correct Answer to Every Moral Question

Gabrielle Zevin, Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow

“Two of us liked dark meat and two of us liked light meat and together we made a chicken.”
Nora Ephron, Heartburn
