Kristina McMorris Quotes

In seven days God had created the Earth. In a single day mankind had turned it upside down Picture Quote #1

Only thanks to blissful ignorance, and the inspiration of my grandparents’ story, did I actually believe tackling a novel would be an easy task. I’ve since learned otherwise Picture Quote #1

My childhood memories of my grandparents are of a wonderful, complementary couple. While my grandfather had a spirited, humorous personality, my grandmother is gentle and poised Picture Quote #1

Several years ago, I was creating a Christmas present for the family, a self-published cookbook featuring recipes my grandmother had collected and created over decades. While interviewing her for the biographical section, she began to talk about her courtship with my late grandfather Picture Quote #1

On occasion, I like to reread my grandfather’s letters. While leafing through them, I’m saddened by what is being lost in modern communication. Soul-baring sentimentality isn’t typically poured into text messages, tweets and emails. All too often, personal connections are brushed aside for the sake of convenience in a fast-paced world Picture Quote #1

Before the day my grandmother shared her treasured letters with me, I honestly wasn’t much of a fiction reader, let alone creative writer Picture Quote #1

The most wonderful type of love, she had learned, was the kind built with care and over time, through forgiveness and understanding, compromise and compassion, trust and acceptance. It was hidden in the minutiae of every day life; it was in the traded smiles during a radio show or the peaceful lulls on an evening stroll Picture Quote #1

People often refer to bygone days as a simpler time. Perhaps, more accurately, my grandparents’ generation focused better on what mattered. Traffic jams and minor quibbles with my husband Daniel pale in comparison with the worries that were faced on the home front and battlefield during the Second World War Picture Quote #1

Life is too short not to say how you feel to the people you love Picture Quote #1

The whole world can become the enemy when you lose what you love Picture Quote #1

It’s odd, isn’t it? People die every day and the world goes on like nothing happened. But when it’s a person you love, you think everyone should stop and take notice. That they ought to cry and light candles and tell you that you’re not alone Picture Quote #1

Maybe heaven entailed more than a soul residing in a single place, but instead having pieces of yourself spread among the hearts and memories of people you’ve touched Picture Quote #1

The line between him and the enemy had simultaneously blurred and solidified. Somehow, while perhaps it shouldn’t have, this thought provided a strange sense of peace Picture Quote #1
