may expecting ready
If you choose to be looking for something, you'd better be ready for whatever it is you are find. Because it may not be what you've been expecting.
regret ocean water
It was like trying to bail out an ocean of water with a teaspoon.
art believe guy
You know how the tightrope guy at the circus wants everyone to believe his act is an art, but deep down you can see that he's really just hoping he makes it all the way across?
eye past people
What makes you walk past thirty-thousand people without a second glance, and then you look at the thirty-thousandth-and-first person and know you'll never take your eyes off her again?
memories eye artist
Memories are like a still life painted by ten different student artists: some will be blue-based; others red; some will be as stark as Picasso and others as rich as Rembrandt; some will be foreshortened and others distant. Recollections are in the eye of the beholder; no two held up side by side will ever quite match.
believe light together
The ability to find sparks may be buried so deep in you that you stop believing there's a God. Until someone comes along, with so much light in her that you can't help but see your own, and when you're together,that light grows even brighter.
thinking land funny-things
Choices are funny things-ask a native tribe that's eaten grubs and roots forever if they're unhappy, and they'll shrug. But give them filet mignon and truffle sauce and then ask them to go back to living off the land, and they will always be thinking of that gourmet meal. If you don't know there's an alternative, you can't miss it.
care matter be-kind
Be kind to others before you take care of yourself; make whoever you're with feel like they matter.
advantage cloaks happenstance
Accidents did not just happen. From time to time they were carefully plotted, calculated, and arranged to one’s advantage-all, of course, under the cloak of happenstance.
book next surprise
In books, you always know what's coming next. There are no surprises.
war nursing doctors
The doctors may be mapping out the war games, but it is the nurses who make the conflict bearable.
war space people
History isn't about dates and places and wars. It's about the people who fill the spaces between them.
book reading night
I love getting fan mail. Often, as a writer, you never know what your readers think of a book... you get critical reviews and sales figures, but none of that is the same as knowing you've made a person stay up all night reading, or helped them have a good cry, or really touched their life.
book reading stories
How do you know that you are not part of a book? That someone's not reading your story right now?
