- ❛ My whole life is a dark room, one big, dark room. ❜
- ❛ Come on a little closer! Step right up! Test your strength! ❜
- ❛ I wanna be dead too. ❜
- ❛ I didn’t realise you were into the supernatural. ❜
- ❛ Don’t mind her. She’s still upset, because somebody dropped a house on her sister. ❜

- ❛ Humbling women seems to me a chief pastime of poets. As if there can be no story unless we crawl and weep. ❜

- ❛ I cannot bear this world a moment longer. ❜
- ❛ I have a better idea. I will do as I please. ❜
- ❛ All my life has been murk and depths, but I am not a part of that dark water. I am a creature within it. ❜
- ❛ You cannot know how frightened gods are of pain. There is nothing more foreign to them, and so nothing they ache more deeply to see. ❜
- ❛ When we are young, we think ourselves the first to have each feeling in the world. ❜
- ❛ When I was born, the word for what I was did not exist. ❜
- ❛ But perhaps no parent can truly see their child. When we look we see only the mirror of our own faults. ❜
- ❛ I will not be like a bird bred in a cage, too dull to fly even when the door stands open. ❜
- ❛ This is what it means to swim in the tide, to walk the earth and feel it touch your feet. This is what it means to be alive. ❜

- ❛ I wake sometimes in the dark terrified by my life’s precariousness, its thready breath. ❜
- ❛ Understanding the world is a matter of keeping very still and showing no emotions, leaving room for others to reveal themselves. ❜

- ❛ Witches are not so delicate. ❜
- ❛ Those who fight against prophecy only draw it more tightly around their throats. ❜

BOOK STARTERS VOL.55 MADDADDAM MARGARET ATWOOD
- ❛ There’s the story, then there’s the real story, then there’s the story of how the story came to be told. Then there’s what you leave out of the story. Which is part of the story too. ❜

- ❛ Life is warped. I’m just in sync. ❜
- ❛ Now it’s a whisper from the past. ❜
- ❛ But hatred and viciousness are addictive. You can get high on them. Once you’ve had a little, you start shaking if you don’t get more. ❜

- ❛ However dark, a darkness with voices in it is better than a silent void. ❜
- ❛ Amazing how quickly the past becomes idyllic. ❜
- ❛ It is another way of saying tough luck. To people you aren’t going to help out. ❜
- ❛ I’m waiting, far off in the future. ❜
- ❛ The only sure camouflage is unpredictability. ❜
- ❛ There are so many of them, and each one of them is doing part of the killing, whether they know it or not. ❜
- ❛ First rule: limit bloodshed by making sure that none of your own gets spilled. ❜
- ❛ I long to swim in liquid moonlight. ❜
- ❛ That’s right, I don’t like to be summoned on trivial matters. ❜
- ❛ The part that really made me happy was that you wanted me to be happy. ❜
- ❛ Cut that part out of us: the grinning, elemental malice. Begin us anew. ❜
- ❛ Where there are wars, there will be crows, the carrion-fanciers. And ravens too, the warbirds, the eyeball gourmands. And vultures, the holy birds of yore, old connoisseurs of rot. ❜

- ❛ No, you will not be cooked on a fire when you die. Because you are not a fish. ❜
- ❛ Take what the moment offers. Don’t close doors. Be thankful. ❜
- ❛ How many others have stood in this place? Left behind, with all gone, all swept away. ❜

- ❛ My hair was driving me crazy, but then … I died. ❜
- ❛ Seek and ye shall find, eventually. And you found. You’re right, I don’t dispute that. Sorry. ❜

- ❛ We’re interpreters. We’re translators. ❜
- ❛ You’ll notice I’m not asking what made you this way. ❜
- ❛ No family, happy or unhappy, is quite like any other. Tolstoy was chock-fullo’shit. Remember that. ❜

- ❛ Do I sound like a hillbilly saying that? ❜
- ❛ Remember, you’ve got your secret weapon. ❜
- ❛ The dream drains away like water. The memory, really. I try to scoop it up in my palms, but it’s gone. ❜
- ❛ My shadow stretches along the carpet, as though trying to detach itself from me. ❜
- ❛ It curls away from me, like blood in water. ❜
- ❛ It’s been so long since I felt the rain. Or wind—the caress of wind. ❜
- ❛ But snow I never want to feel again. ❜
- ❛ Through adversity to the stars. ❜
- ❛ No hero. No sleuth. I am locked in. I am locked out. ❜
