“How fragile the world seemed on Christmas Eve, how delicate. As if everyone in the church wobbled on the brink between ecstatic happiness on one side, and the tragic reminder of the departed, on the other; it was a time when ghosts swirled and whispered.”

“If we were perfect, the light he shines on us would just bounce right off. But the wrinkles, they catch the light. And the cracks, that’s how the light gets inside us. When I pray, Odie, I never pray for perfection. I pray for forgiveness, because it’s the one prayer I know will always be answered.”

“Part of being a parent is loving your child more than they'll ever love you.... It's true. You'll see someday. You'll see.

“Inside was a library unlike any Leni had ever seen. Row upon row of wooden desks, decorated with green banker's lamps, were positioned beneath an arched ceiling. Gothic chandeliers hung above the desks. And the books! She'd never seen so many. They whispered to her of unexplored worlds and unmet friends and she realized that she wasn't alone in this new world. Her friends were here, spine out, waiting for her as they always had.”
