Quotes by Jessica Bryant Klagmann  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“if you remembered one thing, it was that the very small details in life matter a great deal.”
Jessica Bryant Klagmann, This Impossible Brightness

“That her life had meant a lot. That people leave in the middle of a path sometimes, and we have to keep walking. That small things done with great love become great things.”
Jessica Bryant Klagmann, This Impossible Brightness

“I read,” he said, “that often, when people get lost in the woods, they’ll come to a main road and they’ll just walk right across it. Or they’ll turn around and go right back where they started. People who’ve done this have said it was because they didn’t believe the road would take them in the right direction. But I tend to think it’s just easier sometimes to be lost.”
Jessica Bryant Klagmann, This Impossible Brightness

Helen Macdonald, H is for Hawk

“For a long time that had seemed to her to be the key to life: Life--real life--was just a solitude waiting to be transfigured.”
Kevin Brockmeier, The Brief History of the Dead

“Each beat of your heart is a small miracle, you know, so don't get carried away.”
Mathias Malzieu, La Mécanique du cœur

“I hope you will find the cracks in the world and wedge them wider, so the light of other suns shines through; I hope you will keep the world unruly, messy, full of strange magics; I hope you will run through every open Door and tell stories when you return.”
