Fredrik Backman
“People in the real world always say, when something terrible happens, that the sadness and loss and aching pain of the heart will “lessen as time passes,” but it isn’t true. Sorrow and loss are constant, but if we all had to go through our whole lives carrying them the whole time, we wouldn’t be able to stand it. The sadness would paralyze us. So in the end we just pack it into bags and find somewhere to leave it.”
Fredrik Backman, My Grandmother Asked Me to Tell You She's Sorry

“Courage. Kindness. Friendship. Character. These are the qualities that define us as human beings, and propel us, on occasion, to greatness.”
R.J. Palacio, Wonder

L.M. Montgomery
“Isn't it nice to think that tomorrow is a new a day with no mistakes in it”
L.M. Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables

Cormac McCarthy
“There is no later. This is later.”
Cormac McCarthy, The Road

Fredrik Backman
“I want someone to remember I existed. I want someone to know I was here.”
Fredrik Backman, My Grandmother Asked Me to Tell You She's Sorry
