But now, seeing these letters his father wrote to June Bailey Roe, seeing his father's painful devotion to someone who simply wasn't real - a daughter he never had - Wade is unable to suppress his dread. All that love, all those feelings, all that pain, fastened to nothing, a terrible, drifting chaos. His future loss of mind becomes the new premise of his life, and he feels, already, the loss of the things he loves, feels himself trying to find some other way to hold on to them. ~ Emily Ruskovich
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Ruskovich
He whispered, "Life." And so she lived. Is living still. Will go on living, to the end of that whisper. ~ Emily Ruskovich
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Ruskovich
Minutes pass, and between the minutes, June is slashing out the possibilities. She is narrowing her sister's life down to its essentials. The first to go is the vet's office where May might have worked, which is a loss, but the next to go is the mansion that May has been inside of in her dreams, a terrible, vast, cold place where the pictures are old and of other families. And so it is a relief to see it go, slashed out, burned to the ground with the hot friction of June's pencil. Then there is the loss of all possible sons, which is a tremendous relief, and then the crossing out of husbands, one by one, save one. ~ Emily Ruskovich
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Ruskovich
There was a coldness in his unwavering ease, his constant and impersonal joy. ~ Emily Ruskovich
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Ruskovich
He knows the names of all those mountains he can see, every name of every mountain except the one he's standing on. ~ Emily Ruskovich
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Ruskovich
Jenny's absence seems to describe her better than her presence does; she is a looming vessel of her own withholding. ~ Emily Ruskovich
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Ruskovich
I could take care of you," she said softly. She was very surprised to hear herself say this, but even so her voice was calm, as if she had been intending to say it all along. But ~ Emily Ruskovich
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Ruskovich
Take you picture off the wall
And carry it away
Dye your hair the shades of fall
Don't let time turn it to gray

Don't think of me, I'll be all right
Seems I've always done okay
Just give me one more kiss good night
For the last time, turn away ~ Emily Ruskovich
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Ruskovich
If only the winter could have opened up to show her it was vulnerable, too. The ~ Emily Ruskovich
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Ruskovich
How could this word be a party of May's vocabulary if neither one ever taught her? Just like that, she has deepened. Beneath her blond-white hair are these two new eyes that see what he can't guess. She is capable of withholding, then revealing. How has she learned to be this new thing that she is? He cups his hand to the back of her head, and holds her close, feeling already that all of it will pass too soon, that she is already becoming her own self, composed of secret knowledge. ~ Emily Ruskovich
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Ruskovich
She feels in fact that Wade's death is the very end of her heart. It is strange to arrive here at the end after all this time, and also strange to realize she hasn't been here before. ~ Emily Ruskovich
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Ruskovich
The revelation of kindness hurts worse than cruelty. There is no way to equal it. Nowhere to put her gratitude, and so it thrashes in her body. ~ Emily Ruskovich
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Ruskovich
Take your picture off the wall
So I won't have to see your eyes
And maybe soon I won't recall
The painful things that once were nice ~ Emily Ruskovich
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Ruskovich
sibling laughter–he can hear it– not the laughter of school friends or neighbors or cousins. Something secret in that laughter, private, edged with meanness and devotion ~ Emily Ruskovich
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Ruskovich
Jenny remembers what it was like, all those years ago. It was never dolls for her, nothing so tangible as that. It was more of a feeling. As if, for the first several years of her life, everything held over her a sort of knowledge and insistence. Fence posts, wallpaper, the lawn at certain hours of the day. These things glowered at her, or smiled. Even something as ordinary as the blue rolling chair in her father's office had some hold on her, some whisper of a new dimension in its puffs of dust sent upward by her fists against its cushions. There was an intensity inherent in everything until, one day, there wasn't. The blue chair rolled on its wheels to the window when she pushed it. The rising dust was rising dust. And when it was gone, there was only a knot of longing somewhere deep inside of her, a vacant ache: adolescence. Boredom.
It's why we fall in love, Jenny will tell June.
We fall in love to get back to that dimension, that wonder.
She goes to the laundry room, where, from a pile of clean clothes, she picks out a few articles of June's, folds them, then goes upstairs to knock on her daughter's door and tell her that this, this lost doll world, is the reason there is love. ~ Emily Ruskovich
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Ruskovich
Perhaps it's what both their hearts have been wanting all along - to be broken. In order to know that they are whole enough to break. ~ Emily Ruskovich
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Ruskovich
She learned how to deal with the moments when his memory lapsed. Sometimes, she felt it happen even without him saying a word. On a sunny fall day, she lay next to him on the ground, and as he dozed she felt his old life, his memories, radiate off his skin. She felt everything leave him but her. She shed her own life, too, to match him. They lay there together like a point in time. A cloud drifted in front of the sun and things to shift inside of him, and when she sensed this, she allowed things to shift inside of her, too. They became their regular selves again, still warm from the lost memory of a minute ago.
But underneath her happiness was a dread that one day this would be all they had. All associations would be lost: the smell of the gloves, the sound of the truck door slamming shut. All the details she still wanted to know. Everything reduced to nothing more than itself. ~ Emily Ruskovich
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Ruskovich
He sings so softly. Almost a whisper. Not like her father at all. Like the voices they give to the dolls, the men. ~ Emily Ruskovich
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Ruskovich
But that was long ago. She has long since lost interest in motives, in the details of other women's crimes. Even the hatchet makes its usual sense. A mother who loves her child with all her self is only so far from the hatchet anyway; one casual swing and it's done. Hatred, love, all muddled up in that space inside a whisper, when the words don't matter anymore, when the baby's half asleep and you can carry it all the way there if you want, on nothing but the tone of your voice. When the bough breaks, the cradle will fall. Sing it as softly as you like - the words clench their own teeth. The child still falls. ~ Emily Ruskovich
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Ruskovich
Never had a good gut feeling. It wasn't so much that I didn't have faith in my team, but that I maintained the truest fans always reverted to a doomsday position ~ Emily Giffin
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Giffin
The number one reason we don't believe things that are true is because they don't always feel true. ~ Emily P. Freeman
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily P. Freeman
paper fell out of the book. It was a page torn from ~ Emily St. John Mandel
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily St. John Mandel
To carry a secret is to play with fire. Try to pass it on and you'd risk hurting someone else. Hold on to it and eventually you'd get burned. ~ Emily Thorne
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Thorne
I've dreamt in my life dreams that have stayed with me ever after, and changed my ideas: they've gone through and through me, like wine through water, and altered the colour of my mind. ~ Emily Bronte
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Bronte
I have so many favorite writers, it's very hard to select a few ... of classic writers, I have always admired Emily Dickinson and Henry David Thoreau. ~ Joyce Carol Oates
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Joyce Carol Oates
To ignore or use silence is a cruel tool. Hence this quote: Silence is all we dread; there's ransom in a voice; but silence is infinity. ~ Emily Dickinson
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Dickinson
Also because the two young women working the kiosk seemed profoundly unconcerned by what was unfolding on CNN, either that or they were extremely stoic or they hadn't noticed yet, so visiting them was like going back in time to the paradise of a half hour earlier, when he hadn't yet known that everything was coming undone. ~ Emily St. John Mandel
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily St. John Mandel
There's nothing scarier than hearing someone you love cry, except imagining a world where that sound stops. Suddenly I can't breathe. Can't be here. There's nothing scarier than loving someone. ~ Emily Henry
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Henry
In lands I never saw, they say,
Immortal Alps look down,
Whose bonnets touch the firmament,
Whose sandals touch the town, ―

Meek at whose everlasting feet
A myriad daisies play.
Which, sir, are you, and which am I.
Upon an August day? ~ Emily Dickinson
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Dickinson
We do not play on Graves
Because there isn't Room
Besides - it isn't even - it slants
And People come
And put a Flower on it
And hang their faces so
We're fearing that their Hearts will drop
And crush our pretty play
And so we move as far
As Enemies - away
Just looking round to see how far
It is - Occasionally - ~ Emily Dickinson
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Dickinson
What if I began to believe that the critique isn't just an unwelcome part of the art-making process but might actually make the art better? ~ Emily P. Freeman
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily P. Freeman
This one's my other favorite. 'He's successful in interfacing with clients we already have, but as for new clients, it's low-hanging fruit. He takes a high-altitude view, but he doesn't drill down to that level of granularity where we might actionize new opportunities.'"
Clark winced. "I remember that one. I think I may have had a minor stroke in the office when he said that. ~ Emily St. John Mandel
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily St. John Mandel
When you have a life milestone happen, it's good to step back and reassess the things you thought you knew about yourself. ~ Emily Yoffe
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Yoffe
I sometimes think I wouldn't feel so lost if she didn't try so hard to make me feel okay about looking for myself ~ Emily Henry
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Henry
And I realized that until we have healed, pain is how we bear loss in our bodies. Sometimes we mistake the pain for love, so we hold on to it, we stay there in the darkness, in the valley. Or we think that if it doesn't hurt, it isn't love. But when we allow ourselves to move through it and out of it...eventually we heal. And only when we experience the entire journey, through the suffering to wholeness, do we know the full scope of love. ~ Emily Foster
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Foster
How does a human girl become something divine and feared by the gods that gave her the power she wields? ~ Emily A. Duncan
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily A. Duncan
then came a virus like an avenging angel, unsurvivable, a microbe that reduced the population of the fallen world by, what? There were no more statisticians by then, my angels, but shall we say ninety-nine point ninety-nine percent? ~ Emily St. John Mandel
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily St. John Mandel
Don't worry, he said, I never leave a damsel in the same state of distress I found her in. ~ Emily Carter
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Carter
Destiny. To believe that a life is meant for a single purpose, one must also believe in a common fate. Father to daughter, brother to sister, mother to child. Blood ties can be as unyielding as they are eternal. But it is our bonds of choice that truly light the road we travel. Love versus hatred. Loyalty against betrayal. A person's true destiny can only be revealed at the end of his journey, and the story I have to tell is far from over. ~ Emily Thorne
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Thorne
That is why I take the younger ones, you see. You already give parts of your hearts away so easily--little fragments attached to celebrities, to hobbies, to ill-fated love affairs. Your kind have the best chance at survival. ~ Emily Lloyd-Jones
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Lloyd-Jones
I stepped from plank to plank So slow and cautiously; The stars about my head I felt, About my feet the sea. I knew not but the next Would be my final inch, - This gave me that precarious gait Some call experience. ~ Emily Dickinson
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Dickinson
As I raced out of the office, I could hear Emily rapid-fire dialing four-digit extensions and all but screaming, 'She's on her way
tell everyone.' It took me only three seconds to wind through the hallways and pass through the fashion department, but I had already heard panicked cries of 'Emily said she's on her way in' and 'Miranda's coming!' and a particularly blood curdling cry of 'She's baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack! ~ Lauren Weisberger
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Lauren Weisberger
He was so lonely that he laughed at himself. ~ L.M. Montgomery
Emily Ruskovich quotes by L.M. Montgomery
Who does not dislike a "boneless" hand extended as though it were a spray of sea-weed, or a miniature boiled pudding? ~ Emily Post
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Post
I can say with sincerity that I like cats ... A cat is an animal which has more human feelings than almost any other. ~ Emily Bronte
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Bronte
All but Death, can be Adjusted -
Dynasties repaired -
Systems - settled in their Sockets -
Citadels dissolved . . . ~ Emily Dickinson
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Dickinson
Desperately wanting to define what's in the air between us but unwilling to make the first move ~ Emily Giffin
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Giffin
What I mean to say is, the more you remember, the more you've lost. ~ Emily St. John Mandel
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily St. John Mandel
Twenty years earlier, in a life [Kirsten] mostly couldn't remember, she had had a small nonspeaking role in a short-lived Toronto production of King Lear. Now she walked in sandals whose soles had been cut from an automobile tire, three knives in her belt. ~ Emily St. John Mandel
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily St. John Mandel
Consumerism provides no psychological satisfaction, because there is no limit to our desires for things that we never needed in the first place. ~ Emily Wilson
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Wilson
I looked at Emily. As always, she was right. When I needed her, all I had to do was pick up the phone and call. Emily didn't share all my interests or condone all my actions, but that didn't make her any less of a friend. ~ Chelsea Sedoti
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Chelsea Sedoti
I asked a nurse for dental floss and was told that I am not allowed dental floss. Apparently dental floss can be used for several functions besides the maintenance of healthy gums. These apparently include self-harm. When instructed that I was not permitted dental floss because of "risks it raises associated with suicide" I envisioned a noose made entirely of floss. Realizing such a noose would require a dramatic amount of floss to effectively uphold any human person, I brought it to the attention of a nurse.

"I don't believe that even the most practiced engineers could fashion any functioning noose out of a single container of floss," I say.

"People use it to cut themselves," she explained.

"Oh," I replied.

I had just about come to terms with the no-floss rule until the hospital, in a flagrant display of disrespect for its patients, chose to serve us corn on the cob for lunch.

"Are you aware that we are not allowed dental floss?" I yelled at the nurse bringing me the corn. I then threw the corn violently from my plate into the nearest wall. ~ Emily R. Austin
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily R. Austin
Doing press is like eating at McDonald's: while it's going on it's vaguely enjoyable - you're seduced by your own vanity and taking yourself rather seriously - but immediately afterwards you feel sick. ~ Emily Mortimer
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Mortimer
And you dropt, lost,
When something broke
And let you from a Dream ~ Emily Dickinson
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Dickinson
Beauty is the still birth of suffering, every woman knows that. ~ Emily Prager
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily Prager
Did this happen to all actors, this blurring of borders between performance and life? ~ Emily St. John Mandel
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily St. John Mandel
Life is a story just waiting to be told. ~ Emily-Jane Hills Orford
Emily Ruskovich quotes by Emily-Jane Hills Orford
By this curious turn of disposition I have gained the reputation of deliberate heartlessness; how undeserved, I alone can appreciate. ~ Emily Bronte
