“The body can endure compromise and the mind can be seduced by it. Only the heart protests.”
Jeanette Winterson, The PowerBook

“There is no greater grief than to find no happiness, but happiness in what is past.”
Jeanette Winterson, The PowerBook

“She looked at me like I was crazy. Most of my lovers do, and that's partly why they love me, and partly why they leave”
Jeanette Winterson

Jeanette Winterson
“To me, these days will never end. I am always there, in that room with her,
or if not I, the imprint of myself - my fossil-love”
Jeanette Winterson, Powerbook

Jeanette Winterson
“You’ll get over it…” It’s the clichés that cause the trouble. To lose someone you love is to alter your life for ever. You don’t get over it because ‘it” is the person you loved. The pain stops, there are new people, but the gap never closes. How could it? The particularness of someone who mattered enough to grieve over is not made anodyne by death. This hole in my heart is in the shape of you and no-one else can fit it. Why would I want them to?”
Jeanette Winterson, Written on the Body
