“So what? German or French, friend or enemy, he's first and foremost a man and I'm a woman. He's good to me, kind, attentive. . .that's good enough for me. I'm not looking for anything else. Our lives are complicated enough with all these wars and bombings. Between a man and a woman, none of that's important. I couldn't care less if the man I fancy is English or black - I'd still offer myself to him if I got the opportunity.”
― Irène Némirovsky, Suite Française

“I’ve learned that home isn’t a place, it’s a feeling.”
― Cecelia Ahern, Love, Rosie

“Ma perché a noi tocca sempre soffrire? Alla gente come noi, alla gente comune, ai piccoli borghesi? Quando arriva una guerra, o il franco è in ribasso, o ci sono disoccupazione, crisi e rivoluzioni, gli altri se la cavano sempre. E siamo noi a pagare! Perché? Che cosa abbiamo fatto? Paghiamo per gli errori di tutti. Certo, di noi nessuno ha paura!”
― Irène Némirovsky, Suite Française

“The more partners I had, the more I realized Gregory and I were the best pair I’d ever come across. But in my pursuit of answers to all the difficult questions in my life, I missed out on the obvious ones right in front of my very eyes.”
― Cecelia Ahern
