I think bravery means a different thing to everyone  (Chris Cleave Quotes) We leave it up to books and movies to talk about WWII on our behalf  (Chris Cleave Quotes) Everyone carries the weight of WWII with them in their recent family history, and yet it is rarely spoken about within families, because veterans and survivors don’t tend to talk.  (Chris Cleave Quotes) There was no quick grief for Andrew because he had been so slowly lost. First from my heart, then from my mind, and only finally from my life  (Chris Cleave Quotes) I planned how I would kill myself in the time of Churchill (stand under bombs), Victoria (throw myself under a horse), and Henry the Eighth (marry Henry the Eighth)- Little Bee  (Chris Cleave Quotes) Life is savagely unfair. It ignores our deep-seated convictions and places a disproportionate emphasis on the decisions we make in split seconds  (Chris Cleave Quotes) The Daily Mail can’t say ‘asylum-seeker’ without saying ‘foreign criminal’ in the same sentence. I’m sure it’s practically editorial policy  (Chris Cleave Quotes) It’s extremely hard for athletes to accept what’s happened to them sometimes.

It is like a dream of the future, really, and like any dream it ends with a rude awakening.  (Chris Cleave Quotes) There’s what people say, and there’s what people mean, and I like to explore the difference between the two.  (Chris Cleave Quotes) Yet war doesn’t end with armistice, it only ends with forgiveness and reconciliation  (Chris Cleave Quotes) However long the moon disappears, someday it must shine again  (Chris Cleave Quotes) My whole life is my work  (Chris Cleave Quotes) If I can’t write it would be as if I died  (Chris Cleave Quotes) I’m really interested in people’s decisions  (Chris Cleave Quotes) I’m a much better writer for being a father  (Chris Cleave Quotes) I’m not happy with just repeating myself  (Chris Cleave Quotes) Our stories are the tellers of us  (Chris Cleave Quotes) This thing with being lovers, it isn’t like being married  (Chris Cleave Quotes) I am a woman built upon the wreckage of myself  (Chris Cleave Quotes) If I could not smile, I think my situation would be even more serious  (Chris Cleave Quotes) Andrew had a gift for deepening the incision he began  (Chris Cleave Quotes) A scar does not form on the dying. A scar means, I survived  (Chris Cleave Quotes) And thus love makes fools of us all  (Chris Cleave Quotes) Nobody has the time to sit down and explain the first world from first principles  (Chris Cleave Quotes)
