Sonya Hartnett Quotes

Life is lived on the inside. What’s outside doesn’t matter Picture Quote #1

She was everything that was untouchable Picture Quote #1

No bird in a cage ever speaks. What is there to say? The sky is everywhere, churning above its head, blue and endless, calling out to it. But the caged bird can’t answer anything except ‘I cannot’ Picture Quote #1

Yeah, reflections! The same, but different. Like twins - like blood brothers! And when you need something bad done, like punishment or revenge, you’ll just ask me, and I will do it - Picture Quote #1

I feel it in my bones that if I had a kid, I would not either continue to write or have written the book I have done. So it’s just me and the dog. I’ve always gotten along better with animals than I have with children, anyway Picture Quote #1

I have spent a great deal of my time defending my work against those who see it as too complicated, too old in approach, too bleak to qualify as children’s literature. This has been the bane of my life Picture Quote #1

I like me a little bit more when i'm with you - Love Quotes

If cats could talk, they wouldn't - Cat Quotes

I am dying: it’s a beautiful word. Like the long slow sigh of the cello: dying. But the sound of it is the only beautiful thing about it Picture Quote #1

If I’m desperate, I’ll read anything. But even when I can be choosy, I still have no hard-and-fast rules. I have rules about what I won’t read, rather than what I will. No science fiction, no romance, no chick lit. Although even these rules can be broken Picture Quote #1

More than this, I believe that the only lastingly important form of writing is writing for children. It is writing that is carried in the reader’s heart for a lifetime; it is writing that speaks to the future Picture Quote #1

How does one craft happiness out of something as important, as complicated, as unrepeatable and as easily damaged as life~? Picture Quote #1

I think there is something in my books that says these are people doing their best under difficult circumstances - sometimes they do wrong things and make mistakes, but who doesn’t? And who wants to read about somebody who never does? Picture Quote #1

A small town has as many eyes as a fly Picture Quote #1

I never make the same mistake twice. I make it five or six times, just to be sure - Funny Quotes

You had me at hello - Love Quotes

There’s fire in my fingers. I burn everything I touch Picture Quote #1

Let me fly, let me see things that are hidden from other eyes Picture Quote #1

There is nothing that is more beautiful than everything else in the world Picture Quote #1

I would always be lonely, but no more alone Picture Quote #1

Life is lived on the inside. What’s outside doesn’t matter Picture Quote #1

A small town is nothing but eyes and gaping maw; it pecks at its own like a flock of vicious birds Picture Quote #1

I told you I'll be ready in FIVE minutes, stop calling me every half hour - Funny Quotes

I meant to behave but there were too many other options - Funny Quotes

She had witnessed the world’s most beautiful things, and allowed herself to grow old and unlovely. She had felt the heat of a leviathan’s roar, and the warmth within a cat’s paw. She had conversed with the wind and had wiped soldier’s tears. She had made people see, she’d seen herself in the sea. Butterflies had landed on her wrists, she had planted trees. She had loved, and let love go. So she smiled Picture Quote #1

More than this, I believe that the only lastingly important form of writing is writing for children. It is writing that is carried in the reader’s heart for a lifetime; it is writing that speaks to the future Picture Quote #1

I am dying: it’s a beautiful word. Like the long slow sigh of the cello: dying. But the sound of it is the only beautiful thing about it Picture Quote #1

Love is like moonlight or thunder, or rain on a tin roof in the middle of the night; it is one of those things in life that is truly worth knowing Picture Quote #1

Nothing was easy, and sometimes she failed, and sometimes she thought that the fairy stories were right, that there must indeed be easier ways of living happily ever after; but defeat is a poor ending to any tale, so she kept trying Picture Quote #1

Every atom in me feels composed of lead. This is what dying is: a pull to the ground Picture Quote #1

Having you in my life made everything better - Love Quotes

And then you meet one person and your life changes forever - Love Quotes

How does one craft happiness out of something as important, as complicated, as unrepeatable and as easily damaged as life? Picture Quote #1

Affection makes fools. Always, without exception, love digs a channel that’s sooner or later flooded by the briny water of despair Picture Quote #1

Strange how love coexists with hate, how they render each other mute, how the swilling of them together makes a new and softer, sympathetic thing Picture Quote #1

I suppose that’s what happens when you make other people’s lives miserable: life gets miserable back at you Picture Quote #1

Strange how love coexists with hate, how they render eachother mute, how the swilling of them together makes a new and softer, sympathetic thing Picture Quote #1

My life was pouring out my feet and seeping through cracks in the floor; yet still I knelt and did not move, for fear she’d let go my hands. Let me stay, I wanted to beg: Please don’t make me go Picture Quote #1
