Quotes to Remember

Two quotes that are worth remembering from an awesome book I just finished reading. The review may or may not come soon - I'm travelling and away from home the next few days.

I'll never tell you to stop loving. You see, I believe in hopeless love. Oh yes. I believe in it with all my heart, though you may discount the heart of an old nanny like me. For real love brings pain. Real love means sacrifices and hurts and all the thousand shocks of life. But it also means beauty, true beauty. ~Beana (Moonblood by Anne Elisabeth Stengl pg. 36)

There is a moment that comes into every life when the right word, the right look even, could change the shape of the world forever. The wrong one could as well, though the resulting shape would be different. No word at all, however, and the moment slips by, and things remain unsaid that perhaps should have been said, perhaps shouldn't, and no one can ever know for sure. ~ Anne Elisabeth Stengl (Moonblood by pg. 367)
