Quotes by Tucker Shaw

“You can't help him, Eva.' Louise's voice is flat and serious. 'You will only lose yourself trying, and no one will be able to find you.' (ANXIOUS HEARTS)”

“Ah,' she says. 'But I know where your heart was. I know where it still is. And so do you.'
He's gone,' I say. I lock the canvas into a hoop and hand it back to her. 'Here.'
Then you must find him,' she says. 'You'll never stop loving him, you know. He'll never really be gone. My Gabriel is still here.'
Your Gabriel?'
Yes, my Gabriel. My husband.'
You mean Lawrence,' I say. Lawrence, her husband who disappeared in a storm over thirty years ago.
I mean my Gabriel. Everyone has one.' Ada takes my hand it puts it over her chest. 'Eva, my heart is ancient. But it still beats for him. Only for him.'
I look into Ada's glistening eyes. She is telling the truth.
You must find him.'
I know that she is right.
(Anxious Hearts)”
