Louise Penny Quotes

Myrna could spend happy hours browsing bookcases. She felt if she could just get a good look at a person’s bookcase and their grocery cart, she’d pretty much know who they were Picture Quote #1

Life is change. If you aren’t growing and evolving, you’re standing still, and the rest of the world is surging ahead Picture Quote #1

What did falling in love do for you? Can you ever really explain it? It filled empty spaces I never knew were empty. It cured a loneliness I never knew I had. It gave me joy. And freedom. I think that was the most amazing part. I suddenly felt both embraced and freed at the same time Picture Quote #1

To be silent. In hopes of not offending, in hopes of being accepted. But what happened to people who never spoke, never raised their voices? Kept everything inside? Gamache knew what happened. Everything they swallowed, every word, thought, feeling rattled around inside, hollowing the person out. And into that chasm they stuffed their words, their rage Picture Quote #1

He tried to let her know it would be all right. Eventually. Life wouldn’t always be this painful. The world wouldn’t always be this brutal. Give it time, little one. Give it another chance. Come back Picture Quote #1

Few things are better in the world than a room full of librarians. I consider them literary heroes. The keepers and defenders of the written word Picture Quote #1

In winter the very ground seemed to reach up and grab the elderly, yanking them to earth as though hungry for them Picture Quote #1

After spending most of her life scanning the horizon for slights and threats, genuine and imagined, she knew the real threat to her happiness came not from the dot in the distance, but from looking for it. Expecting it. Waiting for it. And in some cases, creating it. Her father had jokingly accused her of living in the wreckage of her future. Until one day she’d looked deep into his eyes and saw he wasn’t joking. He was warning her Picture Quote #1

Fear lives in the head. And courage lives in the heart. The job is to get from one to the other Picture Quote #1

A good novel is a good novel, pointe finale. And I think what I’m writing is exactly that Picture Quote #1

I had to learn compassion. Had to learn what it felt like to hate, and to forgive and to love and be loved. And to lose people close to me. Had to feel deep loneliness and sorrow. And then I could write Picture Quote #1

A good journalist, as you know, is a great listener. And so’s a good writer. And I got to listen to people for almost 20 years. That serves me well, I hope, when I try to understand how a character might be feeling, or how they might react Picture Quote #1
