Quotes by Gregory Blake Smith (?)

“What interests me,” she took up finally, and there was now no touch of her characteristic satire, “is a life in which I am engaged in discovering what interests me. Not just now, as a young woman, but when I am a wife, and when I have children, and beyond. A life of imagination, and experience, and engagement, and commitment to something beyond myself.”
― Gregory Blake Smith, The Maze at Windermere

“Were they—were all of them, Alice too?—so sophisticated, so counterfeit in their emotions, that they operated one or two steps removed from the substance of things?”
― Gregory Blake Smith, The Maze at Windermere

“Margo shushing Alice, who had to sigh theatrically every time Cary Grant did a Cary Grant thing.”
