“Birth and death. It’s a woman’s lot to mark her world by those bookends.”
Jane Kirkpatrick, Something Worth Doing: A Novel of an Early Suffragist

Jane Kirkpatrick
“Anger had always been a secondary emotion anyway. That’s what her mother had once told her, that fury rode on a fast horse charging through a relationship, trampling right over loss, disappointment, and grief. And if one wasn’t careful, wrath crushed love too. “Pay attention to those forgotten feelings when you lose your temper, Jenny. Those are the trio of emotions that if not recognized and dealt with, will surely bring a soul down and make ire the driving force in your days. Wounds must grow new flesh.”

“Old brooms swept away dust and disappointment, but both came back.”

“Indeed. But worry is a sign of a lack of trust. Praying does more than worrying ever will.”
Pegg Thomas, Freedom's Price

“Writing something for publication caused a small conflict for her, which had kept her from submitting her poems. Her words in print would make her both a public and a private woman. She hadn’t yet shared that concern with anyone, including Ben. Writing had become a balm, different from being a reader.”
