Jeannette Walls
“Sometimes something catastrophic can occur in a split second that changes a person's life forever; other times one minor incident can lead to another and then another and another, eventually setting off just as big a change in a body's life.”
Jeannette Walls, Half Broke Horses

Elizabeth George Speare
“A sudden joyful hope sprang into Mart’s mind.”
Elizabeth George Speare, The Sign of the Beaver

James Frey
“There are never words for the strongest of our feelings. There is just the pain that we cannot share. Pain we must all feel alone.”
James Frey, The Final Testament of the Holy Bible

Kim Edwards
“He liked that bones were solid things, surviving even the white heat of cremation. Bones would last; it was easy for him to put his faith in something so solid and predictable.”
Kim Edwards, The Memory Keeper's Daughter

J.R.R. Tolkien
“Criticism - however valid or intellectually engaging - tends to get in the way of a writer who has anything personal to say. A tightrope walker may require practice, but if he starts a theory of equilibrium he will lose grace (and probably fall off).”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Letters of J.R.R. Tolkien
