Quotes by Marilyn Sachs (?)

“The way you feel about somebody who was dead was different from how you feel about somebody who was alive. You could always love somebody who was dead, and you never had to worry about how that person felt about you. That person wasn’t going to get mad at you if you didn’t look for her box over the weekend. But a living person was going to get mad if you didn’t show up.”
― Marilyn Sachs, The Truth About Mary Rose
