Herring Quotes (page 226)

She imagines him imagining her. This is her salvation. In spirit she walks the city, traces its labyrinths, its dingy mazes: each assignation, each rendezvous, each door and stair and bed. What he said, what she said, what they did, what they did then. Even the times they argued, fought, parted, agonized, rejoined. How they’d loved to cut themselves on each other, taste their own blood. We were ruinous together, she thinks. But how else can we live, these days, except in the midst of ruin? Margaret Atwood
The mother who lay in the grave, was the mother of my infancy; the little creature in her arms, was myself, as I had once been, hushed for ever on her bosom. Charles Dickens
It was a strange thing, to still be in love with your wife and to not know if you liked her. What would happen when this was all over? Could you forgive someone if she hurt you and the people you love, if she truly believed she was only trying to help? I had filed for divorce, but that wasn't what I really wanted. What I really wanted was for all of us to go back two years, and start over. Had I ever really told her that? Jodi Picoult
Coco Chanel quote: "A woman who cuts her hair is about to change her life."
A woman who cuts her hair is about to change her life. Coco Chanel
I never told her the other story, in which she stars, in which she is always the heroine? a romanticized story full of clich images in which I am telling her all the things there has not been enough time for, in which we are doing all the things there has not been time fo? Penelope Lively
Anybody can look at a pretty girl and see a pretty girl. An artist can look at a pretty girl and see the old woman she will become. A better artist can look at an old woman and see the pretty girl that she used to be. But a great artist--a master--and that is what Auguste Rodin was--can look at an old woman, portray her exactly as she is . . . and force the viewer to see the pretty girl she used to be . . . and more than that, he can make anyone with the sensitivity of an armadillo, or even... Robert A. Heinlein
She had known happiness, exquisite happiness, intense happiness, and it silvered the rough waves a little more brightly, as daylight faded, and the blue went out of the sea and it rolled in waves of pure lemon which curved and swelled and broke upon the beach and the ecstasy burst in her eyes and waves of pure delight raced over the floor of her mind and she felt, It is enough! It is enough! Virginia Woolf
Stephen Dunn quote: "?ll always deny that I kissed her.I was just whispering into..."
?ll always deny that I kissed her.I was just whispering into her mouth. Stephen Dunn
Nora Roberts quote: "A woman with romance in her life lived as grandly as a queen,..."
A woman with romance in her life lived as grandly as a queen, because her heart was treasured. Nora Roberts
She picked up the book and then walked back past him into the tent, but as she did so, she brushed the top of his head lightly with her hand. He closed his eyes at her touch, and hated himself for wishing that what she said was true: that Dumbledore had really cared. J. K. Rowling
...and you love Edgar, and Edgar loves you. All seems smooth and easy: where is the obstacle?"Here! and here!" replied Catherine, striking one hand on her forehead, and another on her breast: "in whichever place the soul lives. In my soul and in my heart, I'm convinced I'm wrong! Emily Bronte
Ow!' was the first thing out of her mouth, followed by a steam of articulate and literate curses that were neither blasphemous nor prurient. She'd had years to develop a vocabulary of invective that wouldn't offend anyone. It was the sort of thing a princess had to do if she was going to be able to adequately vent her feelings. Mercedes Lackey
So have I seen Passion and Vanity stamping the living magnanimous earth, but the earth did not alter her tides and her seasons for that. Herman Melville
I hate things! I hate all things! I hate and hate every single tiniest thing. I hate the world? said Fuchsia aloud, raising herself on her elbows, her face to the sky. Mervyn Peake
By the time she had grown sharper,..., she found in her mind a collection of images and echoes to which meanings were attachable- images and echoes kept for her in the childish dusk, the dim closet, the high drawers, like games she wasn't big enough to play. Henry James
