“And in another year everything will be different yet again. It is always like that, and always will be; you are forever standing on the brink, in a place where you cannot see ahead; there is nothing of which to be certain except what lies behind. This should be terrifying, but somehow it is not.”
“What lies ahead of you & what lies behind you is nothing compared to what lies within you.”
“if you focus on what you have left behind, you will never be able to see what lies ahead”
“That's what happens when you're thirty-seven years old: you do the things you always did but the result is somehow different.”
“When you look in the mirror, what do you want to see: yet another reminder of your hopeless attempt to be the girl of his dreams, or you? The answer should always be you.”
“A book is a door, you know. Always and forever. A book is a door into another place and another heart and another world.”
