Spencer Quinn
“A light breeze sprang up behind me. In a matter of moments, I realized it was my tail.”
Spencer Quinn, To Fetch a Thief

Spencer Quinn
“Chet! What are you eating?”

Spencer Quinn, Dog on It

Louise Penny
“Life is loss. But out of that, as the book stresses, comes freedom. If we can accept that nothing is permanent, and change is inevitable, if we can adapt, then we’re going to be happier people.”
Louise Penny, Still Life

J.R.R. Tolkien
“Elrond's house was perfect, whether you liked food or sleep or story-telling or singing (or reading), or just sitting and thinking best, or a pleasant mixture of them all. Merely to be there was a cure for weariness. ... Evil things did not come into the secret valley of Rivendell.”
J.R.R. Tolkien

Anthony Trollope
“A small daily task, if it be really daily, will beat the labours of a spasmodic Hercules.”
Anthony Trollope
