Carolyn Parkhurst Quotes

The simplest thing that can be said about any person, any relationship, is that it’s not simple at all Picture Quote #1

The conclusion I have reached is that, above all, dogs are witnesses Picture Quote #1

I’m not going to feel guilty for wanting the things that everyone wants Picture Quote #1

There’s no book that absolutely everyone loves Picture Quote #1

It’s not the content of our dreams that gives our second heart its dark color; it’s the thoughts that go through our heads in those wakeful moments when sleep won’t come. And those are the things we never tell anyone at all Picture Quote #1

It’s true, isn’t it, that each of us has two hearts? The secret heart, curled behind like a fist, living gnarled and shrunken beneath the plain, open one we use every day Picture Quote #1

There would be hard times, but what did I care if we had hard times? The branches of my love were wide, and they caught the rain and the snow. We would be okay, the two of us together. We would be okay Picture Quote #1

The conclusion I have reached is that, above all, dogs are witnesses. They are allowed access to our most private moments. They are there when we think we are alone. Think of what they could tell us. They sit on the laps of presidents. They see acts of love and violence, quarrels and feuds, and the secret play of children. If they could tell us everything they have seen, all of the gaps of our lives would stitch themselves together Picture Quote #1

I can’t take one breath, not one single breath, without knowing that I love you Picture Quote #1

It’s gratifying to know that you’ve appeared in someone else’s dreams. It’s proof that you exist, in a way, proof that you have substance and value outside the walls of your own mind Picture Quote #1

I wake up in that state of grief when you can tell you’ve been mourning even in your sleep Picture Quote #1

Perhaps she saw before her a lifetime of walking on the ruined earth and chose instead a single moment in the air Picture Quote #1

For so long, it was just my secret. It burned inside me, and I felt like I was carrying something important, something that made me who I was and made me different from everybody else. I took it with me everywhere, and there was never a moment when I wasn’t aware of it. It was like I was totally awake, like I could feel every nerve ending in my body. Sometimes my skin would almost hurt from the force of it, that’s how strong it was. Like my whole body was buzzing or something. I felt almost, I don’t know, noble, like a medieval knight or something, carrying this secret love around with me Picture Quote #1

The simplest thing that can be said about any person, any relationship, is that it’s not simple at all Picture Quote #1

I’ve always known that the best part of writing occurs before you’ve picked up a pen. When a story exists only in your mind, its potential is infinite; it’s only when you start pinning words to paper that it becomes less than perfect. You have to make your choices, set your limits. Start whittling away at the cosmos, and don’t stop until you’ve narrowed it down to a single, ordinary speck of dirt. And in the end, what you’ve made is not nearly as glorious as what you’ve thrown away Picture Quote #1
