Philippa Gregory
“So let me see? What do I have? Surprise! Surprise!”
Philippa Gregory, The Boleyn Inheritance

Miriam Toews
“And all our righteousnesses are filthy rags and we all do fade as a leaf and our inequities like the wind have taken us away”
Miriam Toews, A Complicated Kindness

Philippa Gregory
“There will be hundreds of sons making the same journey,' he says. 'All of us riding with broken hearts, all of us thinking of vengeance. This is what I feared would come; this is what I have dreaded. It is not very bright and honorable as you have always thought it; it is not like a ballad. It is a muddle and a mess, and a sinful waste, and good men have died and more will follow.”
Philippa Gregory

Philippa Gregory
“She is Melusina, the water goddess, and she is found in hidden springs and waterfalls in any forest in Christendom, even in those as far away as Greece. (...) A man may love her if he keeps her secret and lets her alone when she wants to bathe, and she may love him in return until he breaks his word, as men always do, and she sweeps him into the depths with her fishy tail, and turns his faithless blood to water. The tragedy of Melusina, whatever language tells it, whatever tune it sings, is that a man will always promise more than he can do to a woman he cannot understand.”
Philippa Gregory

Philippa Gregory
“Every woman has to have something which singles her out, which catches the eyes, which makes her the center of attention. I am going to be french.”
Philippa Gregory, The Other Boleyn Girl
