“I tried to delude myself, because to be deluded could be so sweet. Truly it has been said, many times, how easily a man in love may run mad.”
Alison Littlewood, The Crow Garden

“We are born to wonder, are we not, we human beings? If we did not, if we had no wonder, no curiosity, no imagination, what would we be then? We would be no better than beasts in the field.”
Alison Littlewood, The Hidden People

“could not help but wonder if this was how things would be between us: bound not in mutual chatter but in brooding silence and oppression of spirits.”
Alison Littlewood, The Hidden People
