Gabrielle Zevin
“What is a game?" Marx said. "It's tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow. It's the possibility of infinite rebirth, infinite redemption. The idea that if you keep playing, you could win. No loss is permanent, because nothing is permanent, ever.”
Gabrielle Zevin, Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow

Bonnie Garmus
“Sometimes I think," she said slowly, "that if a man were to spend a day being a woman in America, he wouldn't make it past noon.”
Bonnie Garmus, Lessons in Chemistry

“...In addition, we are fortunate to teach a sport that emphasizes selflessness, teamwork and response to adversity. In what other sport is there a group hug after every point?”
Tod Maddox

Irvine Welsh
“Sundown, and the bellies of the clouds flush pink. Renton reflecting that no matter how early you rise or how late you turn in, you never see that point where light begins or the first bruise of darkness bleeds in under its fragile skin; the beauty, and the scary, unfathomable wisdom of transition.”
Irvine Welsh, Skagboys

Priyadarshini Panchapakesan
“As the postwoman waited, she dreamed of all the things she liked….Tiny postal stamps with colourful pictures. Thick postcards with exotic fragrances. Brown envelopes with whispers and secrets. Red postboxes with little doors. But most of all, she thought about letters, filled with words of love”
Priyadarshini, The Postwoman and Other Stories
