“What she needs are stories.
Stories are a way to preserve one's self. To be remembered. And to forget.
Stories come in so many forms: in charcoal, and in song, in paintings, poems, films. And books.
Books, she has found, are a way to live a thousand lives—or to find strength in a very long one.”
― The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue

“The thing about men was that they always wanted to live forever, until they didn’t. They wanted to open Pandora’s box, peek in at what lay inside, and then close it back up, quick, once they beheld the ugly truth of what they sought. They wanted knowledge without travail, experience without suffering.”

“Good. First rule of book club?” They finished in unison. “You don’t talk about book club.”
