This post is a simple one, and yet, simplicity does not denote triviality. This is a post filled with some of my favorite words, all strung together like ducks in a line. There are quotes here that, just by reading them, buoy me up with happiness, good memories, and send me reaching for the books from which they have been snatched. These are the words that mean more than what they mean; they say more than what they say. They bring to mind a memory, or a feeling. They help me remember a specific time in my life or maybe a certain place. They changed my life. In any case, these quotes are my favorites and they are more beautiful than a sunset or a rainbow. Unlike those things, these words will never fade.
- "Mr and Mrs Dursley, of number four, Privet Drive, were proud to say that they were perfectly normal, thank you very much. They were the last people you'd expect to be involved in anything strange or mysterious, because they just didn't hold with such nonsense." ~Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
- "I am haunted by humans." ~The Book Thief
- “The circus arrives without warning. No announcements precede it. It is simply there, when yesterday it was not.” ~The Night Circus
