Maud Hart Lovelace
“Was life always like that? she wondered. A game of hide and seek in which you only occasionally found the person you wanted to be?”
Maud Hart Lovelace, Betsy and the Great World

Nevil Shute
“I know you've taken risks to do these things. Do Please be careful."
"Don't worry about me," he said. "You've got enough troubles on your own plate, my word. But we'll come out all right, so long as we just keep alive, that's all we got to do. Just keep alive another two years, till the war's over.”
Nevil Shute, A Town Like Alice

J.D. Salinger
“What really knocks me out is a book that, when you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it. That doesn't happen much, though.”
J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye

L.M. Montgomery
“I've loved you ever since that day you broke your slate over my head in school.”
L.M. Montgomery, Anne of the Island

Elizabeth von Arnim
“But it is impossible, I find, to tidy books without ending by sitting on the floor in the middle of a great untidiness and reading.”
Elizabeth von Arnim, In the Mountains
