Barbara Kingsolver
“The wonder is that you could start life with nothing, end with nothing, and lose so much in between.”
Barbara Kingsolver, Demon Copperhead

Claire Keegan
“He thought of Mrs Wilson, of her daily kindnesses, of how she had corrected and encouraged him, of the small things she had said and done and had refused to do and say and what she must have known, the things which, when added up, amounted to a life. Had it not been for her, his mother might very well have wound up in that place. In an earlier time, it could have been his own mother he was saving – if saving was what this could be called. And only God knew what would have happened to him, where he might have ended up.”
Claire Keegan, Small Things Like These

Barbara Kingsolver
“While we watched without comprehension, she moved away to where none of us wanted to follow. Ruth May shrank back through the narrow passage between this brief fabric of light and all the rest of what there is for us: the long waiting. Now she will wait the rest of the time. It will be exactly as long as the time that passed before she was born.”
Barbara Kingsolver, The Poisonwood Bible

Barbara Kingsolver
“I am telling you what I’m telling you. Don’t try to make life a mathematics problem with yourself in the center and everything coming out equal. When you are good, bad things can still happen. And if you are bad, you can still be lucky.”
Barbara Kingsolver, The Poisonwood Bible

Barbara Kingsolver
“Silence has many advantages. When you do not speak, other people presume you to be deaf or feeble-minded and promptly make a show of their own limitations.”
Barbara Kingsolver, The Poisonwood Bible
