Quotes by Lynne Alexander (?)

“I have been inside for eleven years, same as Raoul. Why should we leave our safe houses now? What would be gained?”
― Lynne Alexander, Safe Houses

“She was wearing a red dress whose straps were as thin as the sugar piping on honeycake valentines and her back was bare and covered with star-shaped freckles. I should have liked to sleep under such a blanket of stars.”
― Lynne Alexander, Safe Houses

“At fifty most women are old bags, used up and wrinkled, ready for the garbage can. But as I have been kind to the years, the years have been kind to me; I too know how to make a deal. I don't claim prettiness. Mine is a mature face, a face which tells a story. Many stories. It is a face which survives to tell.”
― Lynne Alexander, Safe Houses
