“Sometimes I feel there's a hole inside me an emptiness that, at times seems to burn. I think if you lifted my heart to your ear, probably you could hear the ocean. And the moon tonight, there's a circle around it. A sign of trouble not far behind. I have this dream of being whole. Of not going to sleep each night, wanting. But still, sometimes when the wind is warm or the crickets sing I dream of a love that even time will lie down and be still for. I just want someone to love me. I want to be seen. I don't know. Maybe I've had my happiness..”

“No matter what, the past would follow around. A sorry soul that only grew heavier in each town. She couldn't run away.”

“Bespomoćnost i gnjev izazivaju predvidljivo ponašanje: djeca se naguravaju i potežu za kosu, tinejdžeri se nazivaju pogrdnim nazivima i plaču, a odrasle žene koje su sestre izgovorit će si riječi tako okrutne da će svaki slog poprimiti oblik zmije, iako se takva zmija često smota oko sebe i ugrize za vlastiti rep, jednom kad se riječi glasno izgovore.”
― Alice Hoffman, Practical Magic

“Sometimes the most dangerous thing of all in matters of love was to be granted your heart's desire.”
