Quote by Wendy McGrath

“Christine had gone into the city archives, found them in an old City of Edmonton telephone book. Her family was in a book. Her family and herself were defined by a street, an avenue, and a phone number. This line of type will rearrange itself into a story of ghosts in that place. A story of her ghost. Christine thought of herself as a child, with no idea of the world but all the ideas of the world. Maybe this was her dream self. She wasn't sure anymore.”

“((وقتی احساس دلتنگی می کنیم به خاطر غیبت نیست به خاطر حضورست، کسی آمده دیدنت، آدم ها یا سرزمین ها از دور آمده اند و یک کمی کنارت می مانند که تنها نباشی.)) می گویم پس دُن رافانیه، گاهی که حس می کنم دلم تنگ شده چون از کسی دورم باید اسم این حس رو بگذارم حضور آن کس؟ بله، این طوری از دلتنگی استقبال می کنی، به اش خوش آمدید می گویی.”
