Quotes by Rebecca Sacks (?)

“Our hands were almost touching. Almost touching. Each atom in the air between us was electric. God, everything mattered so much.”
― Rebecca Sacks, The Lover

“What I wanted was for there to be a rocket siren now. Right now. A siren would crack the world open. That’s what I wanted. No more questions about history, justice, or power imbalances. Let it all evaporate. When the sirens were singing, I did not have to ask myself how I was changed, or if I could ever change back. There was one imperative: find shelter. To be afraid was to be blameless. It felt simple and clean. It felt good.”
― Rebecca Sacks, The Lover

“Nothing had ever felt this good. Nothing in my whole life had ever felt as good as being welcomed not just into a family but into a people. How could I go? I couldn’t go. Please, I whispered in my heart, please let me stay. This is praying.”
― Rebecca Sacks, The Lover
