“We are always waiting, aren't we? All in a state of hesitation and held breath. Sometimes it's glorious like a storm at the end of a hot day.”
Suzanne Hayes, I'll Be Seeing You

Elizabeth Bourgeret
“Don't settle for anyone just to have a someone. Be patient. Have faith and wait for the right one.”
Elizabeth Bourgeret

James Salter
“You must go further than I did," Nedra said. "You know that."
"Further?"
"With your life. You must become free."
She did not explain it; she could not. It was not a matter of living alone, though in her case this had been necessary. The freedom she meant was self-conquest. It was not a natural state. It was meant only for those who would risk everything for it, who were aware that without it life is only appetites until the teeth are gone.”
James Salter, Light Years

Lyndsay Faye
“As he passed a hand over his eyes, I recalled the he could not have slept more than twenty hours in the last seven days. For the first time since I had known him, Sherlock Holmes appeared to be exhausted by work rather than inaction.

"Because if I am right," he murmured, "I haven't the first idea what to do.”
Lyndsay Faye, Dust and Shadow: An Account of the Ripper Killings by Dr. John H. Watson

Jasper Fforde
“So you're going to have to ask yourselves on simple question: Which one of us is speaking now?”
Jasper Fforde, Lost in a Good Book
