Title: The Marriage Plot | Author: Jeffrey Eugenides | Publisher: Picador (2012)

[rememberilyttyl]

The outrageousness of a human being thinking only of herself.

[litandlifequotes]

We felt the imprisonment of being a girl, the way it made your mind active and dreamy, and how you ended up knowing which colors went together. We knew that the girls were our twins, that we all existed in space like animals with identical skins, and that they knew everything about us though we couldn’t fathom them at all. We knew, finally, that the girls were really women in disguise, that they understood love and even death, and that our job was merely to create the noise that seemed to fascinate them.

The Virgin Suicides by Corinne Day

She may have looked normal on the outside, but once you’d seen her handwriting you knew she was deliciously complicated inside.
