Mary Jones > Quotes

“I could feel the years of my life passing. So much of my life seemed to be looking forward to something that never came, but now, somehow, it all seemed to be behind me.”
― Mary Jones, The Goodbye Process

“You settle for so many things. You make so many compromises along the way that you cannot even remember what it was you actually wanted. You can almost see the outline of it in the things you have. But only almost. And you think, Okay, well, this is my life. It’s good enough, and I can make the most of it. Until you find out that what you thought was your life was just someone else’s good acting.”
― Mary Jones, The Goodbye Process
