Book cover for The Werewolf of Whitechapel (Miss Sharp's Monsters, #1)

“It will make you colder. But even the deepest of ice eventually gives way to fire, Clementine.”

Wendell Berry
“You think winter will never end, and then, when you don't expect it, when you have almost forgotten it, warmth comes and a different light.”
Wendell Berry, Hannah Coulter

Wendell Berry
“Living without expectations is hard but, when you can do it, good. Living without hope is harder, and that is bad. You have got to have hope, and you mustn’t shirk it. Love, after all, 'hopeth all things.' But maybe you must learn, and it is hard learning, not to hope out loud, especially for other people. You must not let your hope turn into expectation.”
Wendell Berry, Hannah Coulter

Wendell Berry
“The room of love is another world. You go there wearing no watch, watching no clock. It is the world without end, so small that two people can hold it in their arms, and yet it is bigger than world on world, for it contains the longing of all things to be together, and to be at rest together. You come together to the day's end, weary and sore, troubled and afraid. You take it all in your arms, it goes away, and there you are where giving and taking are the same, and you live a little while entirely in a gift. The words have all been said, all permissions given, and you free in the place that is the two of you together. What could be more heavenly than to have desire and satisfaction in the same room?”
Wendell Berry, Hannah Coulter

“Sometimes things must break before they can be made whole again, so that they can be forged into something stronger.”
Rebecca Ross, Dreams Lie Beneath
