Quotes

She knew no greater pleasure than that moment of passage into the other place, when her limbs grew warm and heavy and the sparkling darkness behind her lids became ordered and doors opened; when conscious thought grew owl's wings and talons and became other than conscious. John Crowley

John Crowley
John Crowley quote: "But life is wakings-up, all unexpected, all surprising."
But life is wakings-up, all unexpected, all surprising. John Crowley
