“Biology is the original Danse Macabre”
― Janie Kim, We Carry the Sea in Our Hands

“My mother gave me the red first aid kit she used to keep in her car with pain relievers and Band-Aids, and I stuffed it in my backpack, prepared to brave the world, even if it hurt me.”
― Bruna Dantas Lobato, Blue Light Hours

“Identity in Biology is a matter of nesting dolls”
― Janie Kim, We Carry the Sea in Our Hands

“When it comes to love, I’ve learned nothing: I love too intensely and I’m consumed by my own love (analysis, jealousy, doubt)—so much that when I’m in love, I always end up slightly extinguished and saddened. When I love, I become harsh, serious, intolerant. A heavy shadow settles over my relationships. I love and want to be loved with so much gravitas that it quickly becomes exhausting (for me, for the other person). It’s always an unhealthy kind of love.”
― Maud Ventura, My Husband
