Wally Lamb
“We are like water, aren’t we? We can be fluid, flexible when we have to be. But strong and destructive, too.” And something else, I think to myself. Like water, we mostly follow the path of least resistance.”
Wally Lamb, We Are Water

Jonathan Tropper
“That's the thing about life; everything feels so permanent, but you can disappear in an instant.”
Jonathan Tropper, This is Where I Leave You

Joyce Maynard
“My mother didn’t believe in germs but I did. Germs are something they made up to distract people from what they should really be worried about, she said. Germs are natural. It’s the things people do you have to worry about.”
Joyce Maynard, Labor Day

Tracey Garvis Graves
“Maybe that's how it starts. You stumble upon something that helps you cope, fills a void. Makes you feel something different than what you currently feel. You know in the long run it probably won't be good for you, but you do it anyway. Tell yourself you can handle it.”
Tracey Garvis-Graves, Covet

Catherine McKenzie
“That I’d been letting life act itself out on me when I should have been directing it.”
Catherine McKenzie, Hidden
