“She read books quickly and compulsively, paperback after paperback, as if she might drift away without the anchor of the printed page.”
Jane Hamilton

“It is books that are a key to the wide world; if you can't do anything else, read all that you can.”
Jane Hamilton

“...you have to learn where your pain is. You have to burrow down and find the wound, and if the burden of it is too terrible to shoulder, you have to shout it out; you have to shout for help... And then finally, the way through grief is grieving.”
Jane Hamilton
