Quotes by Te-Ping Chen  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“As a child she was always reading: Even at meals she would sit and scan the back of the juice box. She must have read it a million times: aspartame and xanthan gum and red no. 9. It wasn't a conscious thing; she just seemed to feel uncomfortable when her eyes weren't fastened to a page.”
Te-Ping Chen, Land of Big Numbers

“She laughed a lot, and easily. It wasn't until we actually became friends that I realized she was often very sad. America is like that, I must say, free and easy until you know better.”
Te-Ping Chen, Land of Big Numbers

“He did not look like a man who could stomach life's indignities, whether it was a closed door or an uncomfortable, vertigo-inducing passage through a birth canal.”
Te-Ping Chen, Land of Big Numbers
