“Nothing is so privileged as thinking history belongs to the past.”
John Green, Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection

“There are a few years when you make almost all of your important memories. And then you spend the next few decades reliving them.”
Charles Yu, Interior Chinatown

Katherine May
“Winter is when I reorganise my bookshelves and read all the books I acquired in the previous year and failed to actually read. It is also the time when I reread beloved novels, for the pleasure of reacquainting myself with old friends. In summer, I want big, splashy ideas and trashy page-turners, devoured while lounging in a garden chair or perching on one of the breakwaters on the beach. In winter, I want concepts to chew over in a pool of lamplight—slow, spiritual reading, a reinforcement of the soul. Winter is a time for libraries, the muffled quiet of bookstacks and the scent of old pages and dust. In winter, I can spend hours in silent pursuit of a half-understood concept or a detail of history. There is nowhere else to be, after all.”
Katherine May, Wintering: The Power of Rest and Retreat in Difficult Times

John Green
“On my first day of training, she told me, "Death is natural. Children dying is natural. None of us actually wants to live in a natural world." Treating disease, whether through herbs or magic or drugs, is unnatural. No other animals do it, at least not with anything approaching our sophistication. Hospitals are unnatural. As are novels, and saxophones. None of us actually wants to live in a natural world.”
John Green, Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection
