Song of the Storm Petrel Quotes

“Only you can tell your story the way it really happened. Without your voice, it’s just a collection of disjointed memories.”
― Jessica Glasner, Song of the Storm Petrel

“There comes a time when the people of your past come running up behind you and collide headfirst into your present in a way that affects your future, unalterably, forever.
Not too shabby for a first line, don't you think?”
― Jessica Glasner, Song of the Storm Petrel

“Whether my feelings were right or not, every day I felt relieved he was wounded. I was relieved he limped because he slept in my arms at night. I was relieved he had nothing more important to do than study or fish because I saw him every morning when I woke up. I couldn't tell him. I could never tell him, because the fact that he was not out there with all the other boys risking their lives for our country, for the world, was killing him. Every day it was killing him. But he was brave.”
― Jessica Glasner, Song of the Storm Petrel
