Book cover for The Day Tripper
“Just as soon as you get over your fixation with being on an equal financial footing as I am, maybe we can start looking?”

Anne McCaffrey
“Maybes never are.”
Anne McCaffrey, Dragonsong

Zora Neale Hurston
“Nanny's words made Janie's kiss across the gatepost seem like a manure pile after a rain”
Zora Neale Hurston, Their Eyes Were Watching God

Anna Quindlen
“Every story has already been told. Once you've read Anna Karenina, Bleak House, The Sound and the Fury, To Kill a Mockingbird and A Wrinkle in Time, you understand that there is really no reason to ever write another novel. Except that each writer brings to the table, if she will let herself, something that no one else in the history of time has ever had."

[Commencement Speech; Mount Holyoke College, May 23, 1999]”
Anna Quindlen

William Shakespeare
“Neither a borrower, nor a lender be;
For loan oft loses both itself and friend,
And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.
This above all: to thine own self be true,   85
And it must follow, as the night the day,
Thou canst not then be false to any man.
Farewell; my blessing season this in thee!”
William Shakespeare, Hamlet

Zora Neale Hurston
“She often spoke to falling seeds and said, "Ah hope you fall on soft ground," because she had heard seeds saying that to each other as they passed. The familiar people and things had failed her so she hung over the gate and looked up the road towards way off. She knew now that marriage did not make love. Janie's first dream was dead, so she became a woman.”
Zora Neale Hurston, Their Eyes Were Watching God
