Colson Whitehead Quotes

Her Final Night In The Quarters Was Sleepless, Even Though She Needed Her Strength. The Other Hob Women Dozed Beside Her In The Loft. She Listened To Their Breathing: That Is Nag; That Is Rida With Her One Ragged Exhalation Every Other Minute. This Time Tomorrow She Would Be Loose In The Night. Is This What Her Mother Felt When She Decided? Cora's Image Of Her Was Remote. What She Remembered Now Was Her Sadness. Her Mother Was A Hob Woman Before There Was A Hob. With The Same Reluctance To Mix, The Burden That Bent Her At All Times And Set Her Apart. Cora Couldn't Put Her Together In Her Mind. Who Was She? Where Was She Now? Why Had She Left Her? Without A Special Kiss To Say, When You Remember This Moment Later You Will Understand That I Was Saying Goodbye Even If You Did Not Know It.
