“No one tells you it's all about to change, to be taken away. There's no proximity alert, no indication that you're standing on the precipice. And maybe that's what makes tragedy so tragic. Not just what happens, but how it happens: a sucker punch that comes at you out of nowhere, when you're least expecting it. No time to flinch or brace.”
― Blake Crouch, Dark Matter

“Anyone can find they've been standing on the trapdoor when they thought they were the spotlight attraction.”
― Lauren Beukes, Broken Monsters

“A book is like a mirror and that it's not the person who reads the book but the book that reads the person”
― Javier Cercas, Outlaws by CERCAS JAVIER

“Odd how certain people, often random individuals, can pulse with significance in your thoughts, your dreams”
― Damon Galgut, The Promise
