Quotes by Janina Matthewson  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“No matter how old we get, we somehow can never convince ourselves that whatever trial we're in the middle of is only temporary. No matter how may trials we've had in the past, and no matter how well we remember that they eventually were there no longer, we're sure that this one, this one right now, is a permanent state of affairs. But it's not. By nature humans are temporary beings.'
'You're saying i just have to ride it out until it goes away.'
'Not at all, my dear. I'm saying you have to strive for a solution and trust that eventually there will be one.”
Janina Matthewson, Of Things Gone Astray

“We are all the descendants of societies we cannot understand.”
Janina Matthewson, You Feel It Just Below the Ribs

“She stopped as soon as she'd come through and the two of them stand there for fully five minutes, for forever, just looking. Staring at each other, right in the eyes, across the space between then, both knowing they have an eternity in which to touch.”
Janina Matthewson, Of Things Gone Astray
