Cara’s Quotes

“Life is long” was all he’d said, his voice calm; he hadn’t looked up from the film. “Being human isn’t easy.”
― Kate Morton, The Clockmaker's Daughter

“It wasn’t that he didn’t feel things—many’s the time I saw him weep—but he dealt with his disappointment, with his hardship and grief; he picked himself up and went on, every time. And not like a mad person who refuses to recognize adversity, but like someone who accepts that life is inherently unfair. That the only truly fair thing about it is the randomness of its unfairness.”
― Kate Morton, The Clockmaker's Daughter

“The world was a bubble now, thin and glistening, and everyone else had found their way inside. But Leonard was too heavy for the bubble. He was a man out of time: too old to be one of the spirited young people and too young to fit in with the hopeless drunkards who lined the river. He felt a connection to nothing and to nobody.”
― Kate Morton, The Clockmaker's Daughter
