Gregory Maguire
“Ah, the inner eye blinks, and the spirit trembles, at the dangerous cost of seeing one's self as one is.”
Gregory Maguire, Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister

Edgar Allan Poe
“O craving heart, for the lost flowers/ And sunshine of my summer hours!/ The undying voice of that dead time,/ With its interminable chime,/ Rings in the spirit of a spell, / Upon thy emptiness--a knell. / I have not always been as now:”
Edgar Allan Poe, The Complete Poetry

Audrey Hepburn
“For my whole life, my favorite activity was reading. It's not the most social pastime.”
Audrey Hepburn

Charles Dickens
“Many a gentleman lives well upon a soft head, who would find a heart of the same quality a very great drawback.”
Charles Dickens, Barnaby Rudge

Charles Dickens
“Curiosity is, and has been from the creation of the world, a master passion. To awaken it, to gratify it by slight degrees, and yet leave something always in suspense, is to establish the surest hold that can be had, in wrong, on the unthinking portion of mankind.”
Charles Dickens, Barnaby Rudge, Vol. 2
