― Shana Abe, The Second Mrs. Astor

“We have to dare to be ourselves, however frightening or strange that self may prove to be.”

“The nature of hope is curious to me. It can sustain us through the darkest of times. It can buoy us above every reasonable expectation of despair. Yet hope can shatter us just as readily as the darkness can. People refer to it as false hope, but I think that’s misleading, because the feeling itself is painfully true. It is a treacherous hope, more precisely. A dangerous one.”
― Shana Abe, The Second Mrs. Astor
