Quotes

Among men and women, those in love do not always announce themselves with declarations and vows. But they are the ones who weep when you're gone. Who miss you every single night, especially when the sky is so deep and beautiful, and the ground so very cold. Alice Hoffman
Avoid men who call you Baby, and women who have no friends, and dogs that scratch at their bellies and refuse to lie down at your feet. Wear dark glasses; bathe with lavender oil and cool fresh water. Seek shelter from the sun at noon. Alice Hoffman
Alice Hoffman quote: "Women know things that men will never know. We keep the best..."
Women know things that men will never know. We keep the best secrets. We tell the best stories. Alice Hoffman
My mother, Abra, had taught me that all people are made from the same dust. When our days here are gone, all men and women enter the same garden. Alice Hoffman
We can offer women what they want most of all, cures for the most common ailments of this world... When children are ailing or babies refuse to be born, when men are unfaithful, when the sky is empty of rain, when the amulets buried beneath holy wall upon instructions of the minim offer not solace and all entreaties to the priests for guidance fail, when the rituals they offer bring no comfort and no consolation, they come to us. Alice Hoffman

Alice Hoffman quote: "I must keep my head and not give in to desire, for desire is..."
I must keep my head and not give in to desire, for desire is what causes women to drown. Alice Hoffman
