Books fall open, you fall in.
“Books fall open, you fall in.”
― David T.W. McCord

Colm Tóibín
“You never know what way life goes. Some of it makes no sense at all.”
― Colm Tóibín, Nora Webster

Laura McHugh
“I took in the thick night air, the sweet smell of honeysuckle, the chirping of frogs, to impress the moment in the folds of my memory, preserve it like a flower between pages of a book. To remember: This is how it feels to be happy.”
― Laura McHugh, The Weight of Blood

“You can’t do anything about the length of your life, but you can do a lot about the width and depth of it.”
― Diane Armstrong, Empire Day

Jesmyn Ward
“I think my love for books sprang from my need to escape the world I was born into, to slide into another where words were straightforward and honest, where there was clearly delineated good and evil, where I found girls who were strong and smart and creative and foolish enough to fight dragons, to run away from home to live in museums, to become child spies, to make new friends and build secret gardens.”
― Jesmyn Ward, Men We Reaped: A Memoir
