Henry James
“I'm glad you like adverbs — I adore them; they are the only qualifications I really much respect.”
Henry James

Anna Akhmatova
“Why is it that you still beguile me –
As wind, stone, bird – and all the likes?
Why is that you smile on me –
With sudden summer lightning strikes?”
Anna Akhmatova, White Flock

Jennifer Egan
“That we have some history together that hasn’t happened yet.”
Jennifer Egan, A Visit from the Goon Squad

Wilkie Collins
“The clouds had gathered, within the last half-hour. The light was dull; the distance was dim. The lovely face of Nature met us, soft and still and colourless – met us without a smile.”
Wilkie Collins, The Moonstone

L.M. Montgomery
“If you can sit in silence with a person for half an hour and yet be entirely comfortable, you and that person can be friends. If you cannot, friends you'll never be and you need not waste time in trying.”
L.M. Montgomery, The Blue Castle
