Quotes by Jessica Au (?)

“we were all essentially nothing, just series of sensations and desires, none of it lasting.”
― Jessica Au, Cold Enough for Snow

“Nowadays, she said, people were hungry to know everything, thinking that they could understand it all, as if enlightenment were just around the corner. But, she said, in fact there was no control, and understanding would not lessen any pain. The best we could do in this life was to pass through it, like smoke through the branches, suffering, until we either reached a state of nothingness, or else suffered elsewhere.”
― Jessica Au, Cold Enough for Snow

“I had one vague, exhausted thought that perhaps it was all right not to understand all things, but simply to see and hold them.”
