Nancy Stringer Nancy Stringer said: " Joan Didion has already written beautifully about one tragedy, the sudden death of her husband. This book recounts a second one, the loss of just 20 months later of her only child. "

“A happy person is not a person in a certain set of circumstances, but rather a person with a certain set of attitudes.”
Hugh Downs

Victor Hugo
“Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise.”
Victor Hugo, Les Misérables

Nelson Mandela
“I am fundamentally an optimist. Whether that comes from nature or nurture, I cannot say. Part of being optimistic is keeping one's head pointed toward the sun, one's feet moving forward. There were many dark moments when my faith in humanity was sorely tested, but I would not and could not give myself up to despair. That way lays defeat and death.”
Nelson Mandela, Long Walk to Freedom: Autobiography of Nelson Mandela

Arundhati Roy
“Another world is not only possible, she is on her way. On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing.”
Arundhati Roy

James Branch Cabell
“The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds; and the pessimist fears this is true.”
James Branch Cabell, The Silver Stallion
