Blair Fell
“They probably know, just like I do, that our freedom is precarious and everything still might fall apart. It could, right? In real life, things don't end so happily, right? But, at the moment, we are just moving forward, swinging our white cane right, then left, dodging obstacles, taking one more step, finding our way.”
Blair Fell, The Sign for Home

John Irving
“Loved ones leave us and we go on—ghosts or no ghosts, my way or Molly’s, we still see them. As Matthew and I knew, the dead don’t entirely go away—not if you see them on the subway, or in your heart.”
John Irving, The Last Chairlift

John Irving
“Autobiography just isn’t good or bad enough to work as fiction… Unrevised, real life is just a mess.”
John Irving, The Last Chairlift

Blair Fell
“The old girl looks up at me with those big brown service dog eyes as if to say: "You have no idea what you're doing with the rest of your life, do you?" "No, Snap. In fact, I don't. Any ideas?”
Blair Fell, The Sign for Home

John Irving
“The snowshoer had written about Reagan—just one sentence, after seeing her friends who were dying of AIDS. “If or when there’s another plague, I hope America has a better plague president than Ronald Reagan,” the little English teacher wrote.”
John Irving, The Last Chairlift
