“Some people say, 'Save yourself and you save your ways.' I say, 'Be yourself and you save your soul.”
― Alice Hoffman, Incantation

“It was a miracle to live as birds do, except for one thing: anyone seen in flight would surely be captured, perhaps even shot down like a crow flying above a cornfield. It's always dangerous to be different, to appear as a monster in most people's eyes, even from a distance.”
― Alice Hoffman , Nightbird

“I have faults enough, but they are not, I hope, of understanding. My temper I dare not vouch for. It is, I believe, too little yielding— certainly too little for the convenience of the world. I cannot forget the follies and vices of other so soon as I ought, nor their offenses against myself. My feelings are not puffed about with every attempt to move them. My temper would perhaps be called resentful. My good opinion once lost, is lost forever.”
― Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

“Women know things that men will never know. We keep the best secrets. We tell the best stories.”
― Alice Hoffman, Incantation
