Izzy’s Notes & Highlights

The Age of the Child by Kristen J. Tsetsi

1 highlight

She was repelled not by the work, and not even by the child. It was parenthood. She had no more desire to be a parent than to be a podiatrist.

“Their musings about how and why people stayed in a country under such terrible conditions were what I hated most. I knew it was ignorance, not insight that prompted these questions. they asked because they hadn't smelled the air raid smoke or the scent of singed flesh on their own balconies; they couldn't fathom that such a dangerous place could still harbor all the feelings of home.”
― Sara Nović, Girl at War

“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”
― Frank Herbert, Dune
