“Winter is a time for libraries, the muffled quiet of bookstacks and the scent of pages and dust.” ― Katherine May, Wintering: The Power of Rest and Retreat in Difficult.

“Plants and animals don’t fight the winter; they don’t pretend it’s not happening and attempt to carry on living the same lives that they lived in the summer. They prepare. They adapt. They perform extraordinary acts of metamorphosis to get them through. Winter is a time of withdrawing from the world, maximising scant resources, carrying out acts of brutal efficiency and vanishing from sight; but that’s where the transformation occurs. Winter is not the death of the life cycle, but its crucible.”

— Katherine May, Wintering: The Power of Rest and Retreat in Difficult Times

I want to retain what the quiet reveals, the small voices whose whispers can be heard only when everything falls silent.
