“It’s not enough to say the heart wants what it wants. I think of the ravine, the side dark with pines where we lounged through summer days, waiting for something to happen; and of the nights, walking the long way home, the stars so close they seemed to crown us. Once, I asked for your favourite feeling. You said hunger.”

— Mary Szybist, from Incarnadine

“Twelve years last Monday since I met Heinz. He is so vividly with me, much of the time, that I’m surprised I don’t know, telepathically, whether he is dead or alive, somewhere. But I still mind where.”

— Christopher Isherwood to E. M. Forster, March 16, 1944
