When I was competing, I cut out red meat but only because I felt it took too long to digest, so I stuck to chicken and fish. Linford Christie Read Quote
We buy a copy of ‘Gravity’s Rainbow,’ say, and we carry our copy home. We open it; we fall into it. And it is here that the word ‘copy’ fails. Because what I experience when I read ‘Gravity’s Rainbow,’ or ‘Beloved,’ or ‘The Moviegoer,’ is not at all a ‘copy’ of what you experience when you read the same novel. Anthony Doerr Read Quote
I allow myself to not feel the need to be some sort of wonder woman. You can’t do everything at once and tear your hair out when you miss your baby using a potty for the first time, although my son was obviously very sad that his mum was not there on his big day. Catherine Zeta-Jones Read Quote

I think it’s really easy to approach a touchy subject head-on, but ‘Sharp Objects’ does it in a way that’s subtle and it presents mental illness as something quite common and normalized. It’s so common and shouldn’t be a conversation we’re afraid to talk about. Eliza Scanlen Read Quote
I think about my mother every day. But usually the thoughts are fleeting – she crosses my mind like a spring cardinal that flies past the edge of your eye: startling, luminous, lovely… gone. Meghan O'Rourke Read Quote
This is the hardest part for me. Just the waiting – the waiting to fight. The work has all been done, and you just have to wait. Deontay Wilder Read Quote
I try to keep each different book different from the last. So ‘Sag Harbor’ is very different from ‘Apex Hides the Hurt;’ ‘The Intuitionist,’ which is kind of a detective novel, is very different from ‘John Henry Days.’ I’m just trying to keep things rich for me creatively and for the readers who follow me. Colson Whitehead Read Quote
Whenever a female takes a strong stand for herself, the majority of the time they have to really, really narrow it down to being feminine and wearing dresses and just being lipstick chic. Michelle Rodriguez Read Quote
When Delaware State University was founded in 1890, it was not by choice, but by social reality. Michael N. Castle Read Quote
