Quotes by Joanna Cannon (?)

“I still hadn’t learned the power of words. How, once they have left your mouth, they have a breath and a life of their own. I had yet to realize that you no longer own them. I hadn’t learned that, once you have let them go, the words can then, in fact, become the owner of you.”
― Joanna Cannon, The Trouble with Goats and Sheep

“You can see the fracture lines in people sometimes, if you search hard enough. You can see where they’ve broken and tried to mend themselves.”

It smelled of unturned pages and unseen adventures, and on every shelf were people I had yet to meet, and places I had yet to visit. Each time, I lost myself in the corridors of books and the polished, wooden rooms, deciding which journey to go on next. Mrs”
