“You can drive yourself crazy thinking about different things you could have done in the past.”
Sally Rooney, Intermezzo

Barbara Kingsolver
“I've tried in this telling, time and time again, to pinpoint the moment where everything starts to fall apart. Everything, meaning me. But there's also the opposite, where some little nut cracks open inside you and a tree starts to grow. Even harder to nail. Because that thing's going to be growing a long time before you notice. Years maybe. then one day you say, Huh, that little crack between my ears has turned into this whole damn tree of wonderful. 515”
Barbara Kingsolver, Demon Copperhead

Ann Napolitano
“Stop thinking about who you were when you were living the wrong life, William. You’re built for the life you’re living now.”
Ann Napolitano, Hello Beautiful

Ann Napolitano
“It was hard for me to accept the fact that we don’t choose who we love, because who you love changes everything.”
Ann Napolitano, Hello Beautiful

Coco Mellors
“A sister is not a friend. Who can explain the urge to take a relationship as primal and complex as a sibling and reduce it to something as replaceable, as banal as a friend? Yet this status is used again and again to connote the highest intimacy. True sisterhood is not the same as friendship. You don't choose each other and there is no furtive period of getting to know each other. You are a part of each other, right from the start. Look at an umbilical cord—tough, sinuous, unlovely, yet essential—and compare it to a friendship bracelet of brightly woven thread. That is the difference between a sister and a friend.”
Coco Mellors, Blue Sisters
