Frederick Buechner
“the story of any one of us is in some measure the story of us all”
Frederick Buechner

Anthony Doerr
“How does life get to be like this? Where she wears her sister's castoff underlinen and a thrice-patched dress while men like Kalaphates go about in silk and velvet with servants trotting behind? While foreigners like these have basins of milk and courtyards of geese and a different coat for every feast day? She feels a scream building inside her, a shriek to shatter glass.”
Anthony Doerr, Cloud Cuckoo Land

Anthony Doerr
“There is magic in this place, the owl seems to say. You just have to sit and breathe and wait and it will find you. He sits and breathes and waits and the Earth travels another thousand kilometers along its orbit. Lifelong knots deep inside the boy loosen.”
Anthony Doerr, Cloud Cuckoo Land

Anthony Doerr
“Almost overnight, the streets glow with meaning. She reads inscriptions on coins, on cornerstones and tombstones, on lead seals and buttress piers and marble plaques embedded into the defensive walls—each twisting lane of the city a great battered manuscript in its own right.”
Anthony Doerr, Cloud Cuckoo Land

Anthony Doerr
“Why is it so hard to transcend the identities assigned to us when we were young?”
Anthony Doerr, Cloud Cuckoo Land
