Wallace Stegner
“Well, there's so much to read, and I'm so far behind.”
Wallace Stegner, Crossing to Safety

Jennifer Worth
“Now and then in life, love catches you unawares, illuminating the dark corners of your mind, and filling them with radiance. Once in awhile you are faced with a beauty and a joy that takes your soul, all unprepared, by assault.”
Jennifer Worth, The Midwife: A Memoir of Birth, Joy, and Hard Times

Abraham   Verghese
“Tell us please, what treatment in an emergency is administered by ear?"....I met his gaze and I did not blink. "Words of comfort," I said to my father.”
Abraham Verghese, Cutting for Stone

Atul Gawande
“Courage is strength in the face of knowledge of what is to be feared or hoped. Wisdom is prudent strength.”
Atul Gawande, Being Mortal: Medicine and What Matters in the End

Mary Ann Shaffer
“That's what I love about reading: one tiny thing will interest you in a book, and that tiny thing will lead you to another book, and another bit there will lead you onto a third book. It's geometrically progressive - all with no end in sight, and for no other reason than sheer enjoyment.”
Mary Ann Shaffer, The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society
