Quotes by Sara Taylor (?)

“For a moment they lie there together, in their own tiny nucleus of heat and breath.”
― Sara Taylor, The Shore

“I guessed with a sick feeling that she was dead, and I didn’t want to imagine it but couldn’t help it: someone being around all your life, being there even when your parents die and your kids leave and your aunts aren’t speaking to you. And then one day she’s gone, this person that you’ve been with longer than you’ve been without, longer than you were with your parents, longer than you’ve ever been with anyone. And nothing will ever bring her back.”
― Sara Taylor, The Lauras
