“Everyone always wants to know how you can tell when it's true love, and the answer is this: when the pain doesn't fade and the scars don't heal, and it's too damned late.”

“I think it is unnatural to think that there is such a thing as a blue-sky, white-clouded happy childhood for anybody. Childhood is a very, very tricky business of surviving it. Because if one thing goes wrong or anything goes wrong, and usually something goes wrong, then you are compromised as a human being. You're going to trip over that for a good part of your life.”

“Children do live in fantasy and reality; they move back and forth very easily in a way we no longer remember how to do.”

“Sommige dingen die je hebt verloren, kun je maar beter niet proberen terug te vinden. Het verleden is bijna altijd mooier dan het echt was. En niets is zo funest voor het verleden als het te willen opwarmen als de kliekjes van een ooit memorabele maaltijd of om er als een banneling in het heden naar terug te verlangen als een verloren en sindsdien onveranderlijk gebleven vaderland. Vroeger is dromenland, een kinderboek dat ooit een onuitwisbare indruk op je heeft gemaakt en dat je vooral niet moet willen herlezen. (p. 167)”
