“It’s a dangerous thing, to try and give someone everything. One day, you might find you’ve given away things you should’ve kept. Some parts of us must remain inviolate if we are to survive as a person.”
― Johanna van Veen, My Darling Dreadful Thing

“I am remembering a thing, not of the past, but a thing that is yet to come. What is memory anyway? Memory is as much a product of the present as it is the past. Created with the perspectives of the present, the colors and limitations and lacunae of the present. Just as history is written by the victors, as the cliché goes, so too do the victors own the future. Who is to say we do not create memories out of the future as well? That the echo of an event doesn’t go both ways?”
― Anton Hur, Toward Eternity

“Unfortunately many people confuse disability with defiance.”

“They say inchoate memory, formed before language, is the worst of all. Because it flies like bats in your bones. You cannot heal from what you cannot voice.”
― Rene Denfeld, Sleeping Giants
