“A jewel's just a rock put under enormous heat and pressure.”
“Extraordinary things are always hiding in places people never think to look.”
“Refuge in any hiding-place from a sea too intensely blue to be looked at, and a sky of purple, set with one great flaming jewel of fire.”
“People do sometimes change, of course. Habits, allegiances, dreams are all alterable, but only under extraordinary pressure - like great love, fear, grief. More often, people don't change. A girl who never missed a day of work does not suddenly decide to stay home in bed, for no good reason.”
“Extraordinary people survive under the most terrible circumstances and they become more extraordinary because of it.”
