Gail Caldwell Quotes

Scratch a fantasy and you’ll find a nightmare Picture Quote #1
I know now that we never get over great losses; we absorb them, and they carve us into different, often kinder, creatures. We tell the story to get them back, to capture the traces of footfalls through the snow Picture Quote #1
It’s and old, old story: I had a friend and we shared everything, and then she died and so we shared that, too Picture Quote #1
The truth, or success, of any writer’s story lies partly in its specificity and its emotional honesty Picture Quote #1
The territory of grief... is both cruel and commonplace Picture Quote #1
I’d confused need with love and love with sacrifice Picture Quote #1
Advertisements
The flaw is the thing we love Picture Quote #1
The only education in grief that any of us ever gets is a crash course Picture Quote #1
Grief is what tells you who you are alone Picture Quote #1
What they never tell you about grief is that missing someone is the simple part Picture Quote #1
Like a starfish, the heart endures its amputation Picture Quote #1
The belief that life was hard and often its worst battles were fought in private, that it was possible to walk through fear and come out scorched but still breathing Picture Quote #1

I know now that we never get over great losses; we absorb them, and they carve us into different, often kinder, creatures Picture Quote #1
Maybe this is the point: to embrace the core sadness of life without toppling headlong into it, or assuming it will define your days Picture Quote #1
Hope in the beginning feels like such a violation of the loss, and yet without it we couldn’t survive Picture Quote #1
Memory is both the curse of grief and the eventual talisman against it; what at first seems unbearable becomes the succor that can outlast pain Picture Quote #1
Grief doesn’t necessarily make you noble. Sometimes it just makes you crazy, or primitive with fear Picture Quote #1
The mother’s first job is to raise a daughter strong enough to outlast her Picture Quote #1

The truth, or success, of any writer’s story lies partly in its specificity and its emotional honesty Picture Quote #1
You can’t change the tale so that you turned left one day instead of right, or didn’t make the mistake that might have saved your life a day later. We don’t get those choices. The story is what got you here, and embracing its truth is what makes the outcome bearable Picture Quote #1
My idea of a productive day, as both a child and an adult, was reading for hours and staring out the window Picture Quote #1
Old dogs can be a regal sight. Their exuberance settles over the years into a seasoned nobility, their routines become as locked into yours as the quietest and kindest of marriages Picture Quote #1
If writers possess a common temperament, it’s that they tend to be shy egomaniacs; publicity is the spotlight they suffer for the recognition they crave Picture Quote #1

That she was irreplaceable became a bittersweet loyalty: Her death was what I had now instead of her Picture Quote #1
