Shard Quotes

“He saw the kind of beauty yellow flowers have growing over a carpet of dead leaves. The beauty of cracks forming a mosaic in a dry riverbed, of emerald-green algae at the base of a seawall, of a broken shard from a blue bottle. The beauty of a window smudged with tiny prints. The beauty of wild weeds.”
― Michelle Cuevas, Beyond the Laughing Sky

“in our eyes a shard
as small as a speck of dust
and a dream of a thousand days
and nights fit for every sun”
― Hanna Abi Akl, Game Theory
