Hanya Yanagihara Quotes
The Other Aspect Of Those Weekday-evening Trips He Loved Was The Light Itself, How It Filled The Train Like Something Living As The Cars Rattled Across The Bridge, How It Washed The Weariness From His Seatmates' Faces And Revealed Them As They Were When They First Came To The Country, When They Were Young And America Seemed Conquerable. He'd Watch That Kind Light Suffuse The Car Like Syrup, Watch It Smudge Furrows From Foreheads, Slick Gray Hairs Into Gold, Gentle The Aggressive Shine From Cheap Fabrics Into Something Lustrous And Fine. And Then The Sun Would Drift, The Car Rattling Uncaringly Away From It, And The World Would Return To Its Normal Sad Shapes And Colors, The People To Their Normal Sad State, A Shift As Cruel And Abrupt As If It Had Been Made By A Sorcerer's Wand.
