Katharine Weber Quotes

• But when I say it isn't meant for anyone's eyes, I don't mean it in the sense of one of those novel manuscripts people keep in a drawer, insisting they don't care if anyone else ever reads it or not.The people I have known who do that, I am convinced, have no faith in themselves as writers and know, deep down, that the novel is flawed, that they don't know how to tell the story, or they don't understand what the story is, or they haven't really got a story to tell. The manuscript in the drawer is the story.

Me conmueven los campos que se elevan y se hunden y que hacen del paisaje un contrapiso verde y arrugado. Pensé que nunca volvería a tener sentimientos tan poderosos. Pensé que viviría el resto de mi vida teniendo experiencias y pensamientos, pero nunca pensé que volvería a sentir profundamente... Estaba convencida de que mis heridas habían cicatrizado y se habían convertido en gruesas cicatrices, esencialmente insensibles.
