Getting it Right by Karen E. Osborne
Rate this book
Clear rating
This book is a page turner, with themes of privilege and abuse and assumptions made. Osborne does a fabulous job of making the reader understand what the foster care system can do to a child who gets lost in it.

Quotes by Lori B. Duff  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“The satisfaction of a balanced general ledger made her smile. Life was messy. Accounting was not.”
― Lori B. Duff, Devil's Defense: A Fischer at Law Novel

“Even the vegetables weren’t vegetarian, having spent the better part of a day boiling in a bath of fatback. Still, as long as you didn’t mind your meat breaded and crisp and you kept the whole thing a secret from your cardiologist, it all was delicious.”
― Lori B. Duff, Devil's Defense: A Fischer at Law Novel

“A book is made from a tree. It is an assemblage of flat, flexible parts (still called "leaves") imprinted with dark pigmented squiggles. One glance at it and you hear the voice of another person, perhaps someone dead for thousands of years. Across the millennia, the author is speaking, clearly and silently, inside your head, directly to you. Writing is perhaps the greatest of human inventions, binding together people, citizens of distant epochs, who never knew one another. Books break the shackles of time ― proof that humans can work magic.”
― Carl Sagan

“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.”
― Elizabeth Appell

“Money can't buy happiness, but it can make you awfully comfortable while you're being miserable.”
― Clare Boothe Luce

“And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

“Comedy has to be based on truth. You take the truth and you put a little curlicue at the end.
”
― Sid Caesar
