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

“It is easy to forget, but stories need not always have a purpose. We are quick to say that folktales have a moral or a lesson or a creed. But most of the stories that have survived the ages are told for one purpose only, and that purpose is to say this: "Being human is difficult. Here is some evidence.”
Lindsey Drager, The Archive of Alternate Endings

“... there are two kinds of labyrinths: those you are born into and must escape, and those you choose to enter in search of what lies inside.”
Lindsey Drager, The Archive of Alternate Endings

“For a long while they are silent, thinking about abstract things like control and what it means to love an institution that is defined by loss, because a library is such a space and their duty is to encourage the books to leave.”
Lindsey Drager, The Sorrow Proper
