“The awful thing about loneliness, Jack thought, not for the first time, is that it isn’t always cured by other people.”
― Peter Swanson, Nine Lives

“But children are more resilient than adults. They’re far better at making the most of what they have, and spend less time worrying about what they haven’t.”
― Alice Feeney, Daisy Darker

“Families are like fingerprints; no two are the same, and they tend to leave their mark.”
― Alice Feeney, Daisy Darker

“It’s funny how people grow into the names they are given. As though a
few letters arranged in a certain order can predict a person’s future happiness
or sorrow. Knowing a person’s name isn’t the same as knowing a person, but
names are the first impression we all judge and are judged by. Daisy Darker
was the name life gave me and I suppose I did grow into it.”
― Alice Feeney, Daisy Darker
