Laurie Halse Anderson
“Shame, turned inside out, is rage.”
Laurie Halse Anderson, Shout

Laurie Halse Anderson
“translates as “cozy” but is much, much more; hygge is sitting on a dark winter’s night with friends or family, the room candlelit, everyone knitting or crocheting sipping coffee or beer, eating pastry or smørrebrød talking, talking, listening, talking, enjoying the pleasure of kindred spirits with the winds howling outside”
Laurie Halse Anderson, Shout

Laurie Halse Anderson
“The taste of shame smells
like stubborn vomit in your hair
lingering no matter how often you was it
sometimes you have to shave
yourself bald
and start again like a newly hatched chick
leaving the faint rot of broken magic
in shattered eggshell pieces
behind you.”
Laurie Halse Anderson, Shout

Laurie Halse Anderson
“too many grown-ups tell kids to follow their dreams
like that's going to get them somewhere
Auntie Laurie says follow your nightmares instead
cuz when you figure out what's eating you alive
you can slay it”
Laurie Halse Anderson, Shout
