Jillian (Peapod Historical Bookery)’s Quotes

“...maybe being an artist is also really about the work. It’s not about standing up and trumpeting one’s own genius to a throng of adoring inferiors, agog with admiration. Maybe an artist is simply one who does an artist’s work, over and over. A process, not a paragon.”
― Olivia Waite, The Lady's Guide to Celestial Mechanics

“I want to run like a girl. I want to be as unfettered and carefree as a young girl crisscrossing a field. I know now I never felt like a sophisticated adult because it just doesn't come naturally to me. Maybe it never will. Maybe I just never ripened. Maybe that's okay.”
― Nia Vardalos, Instant Mom

“Well, sitting prettily certainly doesn't seem to make a difference at all. If it did, why do we still turn into property the day a man puts his ring on our finger? I say let us try making noise for a change.”
― Evie Dunmore, Bringing Down the Duke

“Silence holds no fears for me. I never feel the urge to fill it as so many other people do.”

“If you need to make someone feel small, so that you can feel tall...” Mrs. Bone recited the rest. “Then, my goodness, my dear, you’re no person at all.”
― Alex Hay, The Housekeepers
