Abraham   Verghese
“We are all fixing what is broken. It is the task of a lifetime. We'll leave much unfinished for the next generation.”
Abraham Verghese, Cutting for Stone

Julia Glass
“Time plays like an accordion in the way it can stretch out and compress itself in a thousand melodic ways. Months on end may pass blindingly in a quick series of chords, open-shut, together-apart; and then a single melancholy week may seem like a year's pining, one long unfolding note.”
Julia Glass, Three Junes

Pat Conroy
“it had been a winter of deadening seriousness, when all the illusions and bright dreams of my early twenties had withered and died. I did not yet have the interior resources to dream new dreams; I was far too busy mourning the death of the old ones and wondering how I was to survive without them. I was sure I could replace them somehow , but was not sure I could restore their brassy luster or dazzling impress .”
Pat Conroy, The Prince of Tides

Pat Conroy
“She understood the nature of sin and knew that its most volatile form was the kind that did not recognize itself.”

Pat Conroy
“She pronounced each word carefully, as though she was tasting fruit. The words of her poems were a most private and fragrant orchard.”
