Quotes by Felicity Castagna (?)

“Most stories don't really go ahead in straight lines. They get jumbled up and you have to untangle them again (just like life, I suppose).”

“He wondered who his children were now. This was the hardest thing about being a parent, the thing that no one tells you about. The fact that you grieve for your children the moment they are born. Not so much because you've lost them but because they are always changing and you can't get back all those different versions of what they once were.”
― Felicity Castagna, No More Boats
