Book Quote by Rivka Galchen
““My books rustled by like a military of ducks. My mother had never liked my books. She'd said they kept me from real life, by which I think she meant men, or money, or both. Always accusing things of precisely the crimes they hadn't committed. (From the short story: Once an Empire)””

![“I’m interested in [meteorology], but I’m more interested in gross misappropriations of the authoritative language of science. It feels rife with clarity, and yet you don’t understand what it means. And I think that’s beautiful.” quote by Rivka Galchen](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/c8d/rivka-galchen-23950_language_i-m-interested-in-meteorology-but-i-m-mo_81940.jpg)
