Emily

“When trouble strikes, head to the library. You will either be able to solve the problem, or simply have something to read as the world crashes down around you.”
― Lemony Snicket

“It is one of the peculiar truths of life that people often say things that they know full well are ridiculous.”
― Lemony Snicket, The Slippery Slope

“I was observing her closely as I talked, and after a while I began to get the impression that she was not, in fact, quite so merry and smiling a girl as I had been led to believe at first. She seemed to be coiled in herself, as though with a secret she was jealously guarding. The deep-blue eyes moved too quickly about the room, never settling or resting on one thing for more than a moment; and over all her face, though so faint that they might not even have been there, those small downward lines of sorrow.”
― Roald Dahl, Someone Like You

“Literature doesn’t exactly have a strong mental-health track record.”
― Lemony Snicket
