Home. The word had layers of meaning. A place. An emotion. Memories.

Jacqueline Winspear
“My child, when a mountain appears on the journey, we try to go to the left, then to the right; we try to find the easy way to navigate our way back to the easier path.” He paused. “But the mountain is there to be crossed. It is on that pilgrimage, as we climb higher, that we are forced to shed the layers upon layers we have carried for so long. Then we find that our load is lighter and we have come to know something of ourselves in the perilous climb.”
Jacqueline Winspear, Pardonable Lies

Inglath Cooper
“In the same way that the wind blows spores of a dandelion across a green yard, and they begin to pop up everywhere, the same is true of hatred, the seeds multiplying one by one until the landscape it has fallen upon is forever changed.”
Inglath Cooper, Crossing Tinker's Knob

Jojo Moyes
“That Mack McGuire, he makes my heart flutter like a clean sheet on a long line.”
Jojo Moyes, The Giver of Stars

Yaa Gyasi
“We believe the one who has the power. He is the one who gets to write the story. So when you study history, you must always ask yourself, Whose story am I missing? Whose voice was suppressed so that this voice could come forth? Once you have figured that out, you must find that story too. From there, you begin to get a clearer, yet still imperfect, picture.”
Yaa Gyasi, Homegoing

Sejal Badani
“With humility may I reap my own power, and at the end of the journey, I hope I learn when to stand small so others can feel tall.”
Sejal Badani, The Storyteller's Secret
