Marilynne Robinson
“It is, as she said, difficult to describe someone, since memories are by their nature fragmented, isolated, and arbitrary as glimpses one has at night through lighted windows.”
Marilynne Robinson, Housekeeping

“BUT here’s a secret: The lows don’t last any longer than the highs do. Like clouds on an overcast day, sometimes we have to face the fact that what happens to us in life isn’t controllable, and if we wait a while, don’t take it personally, and decide to enjoy ourselves anyway, the sky will eventually clear up.”
Lauren Graham, In Conclusion, Don't Worry About It

Marilynne Robinson
“She would say I fell asleep, but I did not. I simply let the darkness in the sky become coextensive with the darkness in my skull and bowels and bones. Everything that falls upon the eye is apparition, a sheet dropped over the world's true workings. The nerves and the brain are tricked, and one is left with dreams that these specters loose their hands from ours and walk away, the curve of the back and the swing of the coat so familiar as to imply that they should be permanent fixtures of the world, when in fact nothing is more perishable.”
Marilynne Robinson, Housekeeping

Naomi Novik
“There had been something gentle in her, a pool of magic, not a running stream that had washed away all the ordinary parts of her life.”
Naomi Novik, Uprooted

“In conclusion, don’t worry about it.
You already have The Most. And you’re already one of The Best.”
Lauren Graham, In Conclusion, Don't Worry About It
