Renee

“Probably drove in from Mission Hills, feeling magnanimous about setting foot north of the river.”
― Gillian Flynn, Dark Places

“I might as well have said dot dot dot aloud.”
― Gillian Flynn, Dark Places

“Tout comprendre, c'est tout pardonner.”
― Leo Tolstoy, War and Peace

“Summers with Rene began with a cigarette in one side of her mouth and a squinting of her eyes as she thought . . . . Shortly, she would make her pronouncement and it would seem magical no matter how often the words were said. "It's a beach day," blessed the day. The rest was understood. No more needed to be said. I knew that she knew. She had the gift to read what would come from the skies as surely as my mother could see births and betrayals in the cards.”
― Georgia Scott, American Girl: Memories That Made Me
