Quotes by Ethan Rutherford  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Here's the thing: the act of reading changes your life, sometimes in large ways, sometimes in small ways, but every book you read asks you to move outside of yourself and your own experience to consider the lives of others. So I can't identify a particular book that altered my life, but I do know that the act of reading has pushed me to engage more deeply with the world (real and imagined), and I'm grateful for that.”
Ethan Rutherford

“A dream is a wish your heart makes”
Ethan Rutherford, The Peripatetic Coffin and Other Stories

“The cold, unforgiving now, scrapes the insides of the men's nose with an icy finger. They feel it in the roots of their jaws.”
Ethan Rutherford, North Sun: Or, The Voyage of the Whaleship Esther
