Quotes by Emily Rhoads Johnson  (?)

“Fancy...means seeing beyond what's really there...turning one thing into another...letting ideas grow and change. A person with the gift of fancy has a mind like a magician's hat. He reaches in, and out come rabbits and milkshakes and peacock feathers and anything else he wishes. Maybe—at first—he gets some things he doesn't want, like snakes and dots. But with patience—and practice—surprising and wonderful things come out every time.”
Emily Rhoads Johnson, Spring and the Shadow Man

“It's a terrible disease, loneliness is. I've had it, and I know. It makes you do things you'd never do otherwise. It makes you want to show others how much it hurts.”
Emily Rhoads Johnson, Spring and the Shadow Man

“Happiness isn't a state of being...It comes in little bursts, sometimes when you least expect it. The important thing is to be ready for it, or it disappears without your ever knowing it was there at all.”
Emily Rhoads Johnson, Spring and the Shadow Man
