Quotes by Kristen Loesch (?)

“Imagine that you are a pair of white gloves, Mama would say, pulling one of her gloves between her hands, too far apart. Any stain that falls on you becomes part of the fabric. No matter how much you wash, you will never be pure white again. And if the stain seems to fade on its own, it’s because it’s sunk into the thread; because it’s gone even deeper.”
― Kristen Loesch, The Porcelain Doll

“There is no enlightenment to be found in the past. No healing. No solace. Whatever we are looking for will not be there.”
― Kristen Loesch, The Last Russian Doll

“Love should not be a frenzy....You will know it by how quiet it is. How it grows over time, every day a little bit more, a little bit stronger, without anyone noticing, until it's all you can see.... Until it is just a fact of life.

[Katherine White/Yekaterina Simonova to her daughter Rosie/Raisa]”
