Quotes by Marianne Macdonald

“It’s funny, how you realize things too late. Someone once said to me the tragedy about life is that you understand it backwards. But I don’t think so. I think the tragedy about life is there is no tragedy - you just don’t know it till you die.”
— Patty Belle Bellani”
― Marianne Macdonald, The Lotus Eaters
