“Mom would often talk about a refugee boy she’d met in a hospital in Afghanistan. He was the victim of a land mine and had lost a leg. She said to him that she brought greetings to him from schoolchildren in New York. “Tell them not to worry about me,” this little boy told her from his hospital bed. “I still have one leg.”
Will Schwalbe, The End of Your Life Book Club

“And there's something you can always tell people who want to learn more about the world and who don't know how to find a cause to support. You can always tell them to read.”

“Bookstores attract the right kind of folk. Good people like A.J. and Amelia. And I like talking about books with people who like talking about books. I like paper. I like how it feels, and I like the feel of a book in my back pocket. I like how a new book smells, too.”
Gabrielle Zevin, The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry

“Someday, you may think of marrying. Pick someone who thinks you're the only person in the room.”
