“Our inner selves go on without us sometimes, trusting we’ll catch on eventually. Sometimes it’s too late when we do—too late to let the other person know what we’ve learned.”
― The Year Mrs. Cooper Got Out More: A Great Wharf Novel

“Death wasn’t something to romanticize. It was something to stave off, to avoid, to fight as long as possible. Even though she had her battles with melancholy, she never seriously considered suicide. Something in her trusted that there would be an upswing and it would be worth waiting for.”

“Self-care isn't always manicures, bubble baths, and eating healthy food. Sometimes, it's forcing yourself to get out of bed, take a shower, and participate in life again.”

“Strategically placed at the level of her T3 vertebra, just below the deepest back on any of her blouses, was a tattoo of the human brain. He had to look away or else he’d jump her bones all over again. The brain got him every time.”

“I was feeling sorry for myself and immediately assumed her life was going better than mine. Ridiculous, of course—no one can know what a stranger’s life is like. Often we don’t even know what a loved one’s life is like. We all keep so many things to ourselves.”

“His deep brown eyes added both confidence and compassion to his looks. He had creases—around his eyelids, his nose, his mouth—that may have originated in sunlight and outdoor work but seemed graven in a love of humanity … The creases were his statement to the world: This man loved life and just as deeply feared losing it or anyone he loved in it. He carried on his shoulders the uneasy fraternal twins of love and responsibility.”
