Erin Morgenstern Quotes

I keep waiting for things to get back down to whelming, but they stay at overwhelming Picture Quote #1

I think that’s a hallmark of a really good story that it has readers that it speaks to more than others Picture Quote #1

I’m kind of big on performance in general. I like the sort of entertainment where you can go in and be fully immersed in it Picture Quote #1

It’s a wonderful sort of feeling when people want to spend more time in a world you created Picture Quote #1

The fact that people are already reading and loving something I wrote is still hard to believe Picture Quote #1

Before you leave, the fortune teller reminds you that the future is never set in stone Picture Quote #1

It is perhaps both a blessing and a curse that fictional worlds spring into my mind nearly fully formed and it takes quite a while to sift through everything to find the story Picture Quote #1

I am tired of trying to hold things together that cannot be held. Trying to control what cannot be controlled. I am tired of denying myself what I want for fear of breaking things I cannot fix. They will break no matter what we do Picture Quote #1

They say it’s darkest before the dawn, but it also tend to be quietest, and the quiet lets you hear yourself better Picture Quote #1

Secrets have power, and that power diminishes when they are shared, so they are best kept and kept well. Sharing secrets, real secrets, important ones, with even one other person, will change them Picture Quote #1

That’s the beauty of it. Have you seen the contraptions these magicians build to accomplish the most mundane feats? They are a bunch of fish covered in feathers trying to convince the public they can fly, I am simply a bird in their midst Picture Quote #1

You may tell a tale that takes up residence in someone’s soul, becomes their blood and self and purpose. That tale will move them and drive them and who knows that they might do because of it, because of your words. That is your role, your gift Picture Quote #1

I mean only that I hope they find darkness or paradise without fear of it, if they can Picture Quote #1

... the thrill of being surrounded by something wondrous and fantastical, only magnified and focused directly at her. The feel of his skin against hers reverberates across her entire body, though his fingers remain entwined in hers Picture Quote #1

People see what they wish to see. And in most cases, what they are told that they see Picture Quote #1

I have been surrounded by love letters you two have built each other for years, encased in tents Picture Quote #1

... have a theory that she is in love with the dream of someone and not an actual person Picture Quote #1

I cannot let a place that is so important to so many people fade away. Something that is wonder and comfort and mystery all together that they have nowhere else. If you had that, wouldn’t you want to keep it? Picture Quote #1

And there are never really endings, happy or otherwise. Things keep going on, they overlap and blur, your story is part of your sister’s story is part of many other stories, and there is no telling where any of them may lead Picture Quote #1

I couldn’t tell the difference between what was real and what I wanted to be real Picture Quote #1

Something about the circus stirs their souls, and they ache for it when it is absent Picture Quote #1

Old stories have a habit of being told and retold and changed. Each subsequent storyteller puts his or her mark upon it. Whatever truth the story once had is buried in bias and embellishment. The reasons do not matter as much as the story itself Picture Quote #1

The circus looks abandoned and empty. But you think perhaps you can smell caramel wafting through the evening breeze, beneath the crisp scent of the autumn leaves. A subtle sweetness at the edges of the cold Picture Quote #1

I suppose there will never be a lack of things to say, of stories to be told and shared Picture Quote #1

Marco moves to close the distance between them, kissing away her tears before catching her lip with his own. As he kisses her, the bonfire glows brighter. The acrobats catch the light perfectly as they spin. The entire circus sparkles, dazzling every patron Picture Quote #1

He reads histories and mythologies and fairy tales, wondering why it seems that only girls are ever swept away from their mundane lives on farms by knights or princes or wolves. It strikes him as unfair to not have the same fanciful opportunity himself. And he is not in the position to do any rescuing of his own Picture Quote #1

This is, in part, why there is less magic in the world today. Magic is secret and secrets are magic, after all, and years upon years of teaching and sharing magic and worse. Writing it down in fancy books that get all dusty with age has lessened it, removed its power bit by bit Picture Quote #1

I have read for countless people on innumerable subjects and the most difficult thing to understand within the cards is always the timing. I knew that, and still it surprised me. How long I was willing to wait for something that was only a possibility. I always thought it was just a matter of time but I was wrong Picture Quote #1

The silence that falls between them is a comfortable one. He longs to reach over and touch her, but he resists, fearful of destroying the delicate camaraderie they are building. He steals glances instead, watching the way the light falls over her skin. Several times he catches her regarding him in a similar manner, and the moments when she holds his eyes with hers are sublime Picture Quote #1

If I have not been completely honest with you, it is only because I know a great deal of things that you do not want to know. I am going to ask that you trust me when I tell you I am trying to make things better. It is an extremely delicate balance and there are a great many factors involved. The best we can do right now is take everything as it comes, and not to worry ourselves over things that have happened, or things that are to come Picture Quote #1
