Quotes by Helene Tursten (?)

“But she had learned that it was smart not to reveal that all her senses were in full working order; instead, she allowed people to act in accordance with their own preconceptions. This was often a useful source of information, and Maud could form her own opinion of the person and the situation.”
― Helene Tursten, An Elderly Lady Is Up to No Good

“The difference between a wise person and a foolish person is that the wise one does not repeat his mistakes,”
― Helene Tursten, The Golden Calf

“No,” she said again, just because it felt good to say no to this person”
