Quotes by Eva Lesko Natiello (?)

“The thing about secrets is they’re mostly regrets, aren’t they? I mean, “good news” secrets aren’t really meant to be kept. Just the embarrassing, shameful kind. Everyone’s said or done something they wish they hadn’t. Maybe they were young and immature, or drunk and displayed temporary poor judgment. Do these things need to be broadcast? Should mistakes be tattooed on forearms?”

“One of the challenges with secrets is that they need disguises, which manifest as lies. Tinkering with the truth is an art form and, when done masterfully, can paint exquisite stories.”
― Eva Lesko Natiello, The Memory Box
