Quotes by Thea Beckman (?)

“De twintigste eeuw - Dolf had het herhaaldelijk op de televisie gezien - was niet beter dan de dertiende, zelfs niet beschaafder.”
― Thea Beckman, Kruistocht in spijkerbroek

“Moeder Aarde in lentekleed; iets mooiers, opwekkenders en heerlijkers on Christian zich niet indenken. Heel diep van binnen voelde hij dat de verering van de Thulenen voor Moeder Aarde wortelde in liefde, maar vooral in de grote vreugde te beseffen dat zij deel uitmaakten van dit bruisende leven, deze jaarlijkse vernieuwing.”
― Thea Beckman, Kinderen van Moeder Aarde

“En omdat ze vinden dat het leven lang-en-zonnig is, hebben ze nooit veel haast om ergens te komen. Thule is overal mooi, zeggen ze dan.”
― Thea Beckman, Het Helse Paradijs
