Book cover for The Nightingale
I always thought it was what I wanted: to be loved and admired. Now I think perhaps I’d like to be known.

John Steinbeck
“I believe a strong woman may be stronger than a man, particularly if she happens to have love in her heart. I guess a loving woman is indestructible.”
― John Steinbeck, East of Eden

C.S. Lewis
“I know now, Lord, why you utter no answer. You are yourself the answer. Before your face questions die away. What other answer would suffice?”
― C.S. Lewis

George Eliot
“Hold up your head! You were not made for failure, you were made for victory. Go forward with a joyful confidence.”
― George Eliot

Rainer Maria Rilke
“Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are now written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer.”
― Rainer Maria Rilke

Victor Hugo
“Music expresses that which cannot be put into words and that which cannot remain silent”
― Victor Hugo
