Kristin Hannah Quotes

She knew, too, that love didn't evaporate. It faded, perhaps, lost its weight like bones left out in the sun, but it didn't go away Picture Quote #1

Friendships were like marriages in that way. Routines and patterns were poured early and hardened like cement Picture Quote #1

I have never known how to say goodbye. It is a failing that has been with me all of my life. It's especially problematic, given how often partings have come up Picture Quote #1

I was always a little girl, lost in Oz, looking for a way to believe that there was no place like home … Picture Quote #1

When I met your father, it was magic. Not for him - not then - but for me. Sometimes, if you're lucky, you can look into a pair of eyes and see your whole future Picture Quote #1

I always thought it was what I wanted: to be loved and admired. Now I think perhaps I’d like to be known Picture Quote #1

One thing I can tell you for sure is this: we only regret what we don’t do in life Picture Quote #1

What good did it do to light the world on fire if she had to watch the glow alone? Picture Quote #1

Before this trip and all that she’d learned about the three of them, she would have gotten angry or changed the subject. Anything to obscure the pain she felt. Now she knew better. You carried your pain with you in life. There was no outrunning it Picture Quote #1

I didn’t know how... deep love ran, how it was in your blood, not your heart, and how that same blood pumped through your veins your whole life Picture Quote #1

That was what a best friend did: hold up a mirror and show you your heart Picture Quote #1

To make real friends you have to put yourself out there. Sometimes people will let you down, but you can’t let that stop you. If you get hurt, you just pick yourself up, dust off your feelings, and try again Picture Quote #1

She’d been criticized for holding the reins of parenthood too tightly, of controlling her children too completely, but she didn’t know how to let go. From the moment she’d first decided to become a mother, it had been an epic battle Picture Quote #1

The heat made people crazy. They woke from their damp bedsheets and went in search of a glass of water, surprised to find that when their vision cleared, they were holding instead the gun they kept hidden in the bookcase Picture Quote #1

Then he left her there, standing alone, surrounded by word ghosts; things she could have said Picture Quote #1

That was the one thing she knew now. Some chances came and went, and if you missed them, you could spend the rest of your life standing alone, waiting for an opportunity that had already passed you by Picture Quote #1

Nina knew the power of black and white images. Sometimes a thing was its truest self when the colors were stripped away Picture Quote #1

In the sea of grief, there were islands of grace, moments in time when one could remember what was left rather than all that had been lost Picture Quote #1

Jude remembered this pain. Every woman had felt some version of it: the end of first love. It was when you learned, for good and always, that love could be impermanent Picture Quote #1

Nobody’s strong enough to be a parent. We just do it, blindly, going forward on faith and love and hope. That’s all it is... Being afraid... and going on Picture Quote #1

To lose love is a terrible thing. But to turn away from it is unbearable. Will you spend the rest of your life replaying it in your head? Wondering if you walked away too soon or too easily? Or if you’ll ever love anyone that deeply again? Picture Quote #1

That was the thing about best friends. Like sisters and mothers, they could piss you off and make you cry and break your heart, but in the end, when the chips were down, they were there, making you laugh even in your darkest hours Picture Quote #1

If I have learned anything in this long life of mine, it is this: in love we find out who we want to be; in war we find out who we are Picture Quote #1

We women. as glue for the family. lead lives that are important and conflicted. What we women choose to give up for our families is important and valid Picture Quote #1

What I know now about life is this: your mother is a part of everything you do and everything you are Picture Quote #1

As mothers and daughters, we are connected with one another. My mother is the bones of my spine, keeping me straight and true. She is my blood, making sure it runs rich and strong. She is the beating of my heart. I cannot now imagine a life without her Picture Quote #1

They would always be a family, but if she’d learned anything in the past few weeks it was that a family wasn’t a static thing. There were always changes going on. Like with continents, sometimes the changes were invisible and underground, and sometimes they were explosive and deadly. The trick was to keep your balance. You couldn’t control the direction of your family any more than you could stop the continental shelf from breaking apart. All you could do was hold on for the ride Picture Quote #1

We women make choices for others, not for ourselves, and when we are mothers, we... bear what we must for our children. You will protect them. It will hurt you; it will hurt them. Your job is to hide that your heart is breaking and do what they need you to do Picture Quote #1

No mother. Two small words, and yet within them lay a bottomless well of pain and loss, a ceaseless mourning for touches that were never received and words of wisdom that were never spoken. No single word was big enough to adequately describe the loss of your mother Picture Quote #1

She had been ready to love this man from the moment she first saw him. In all these years, that had never changed. They’d hurt each other, let each other down, and yet, here they were after everything, together. She needed him now, needed him to remind her that she was live, that she wasn’t alone, that she hadn’t lost everything Picture Quote #1
