Quotes A.Rosalind Liked

Daphne du Maurier
“I wish I was a woman of about thirty-six dressed in black satin with a string of pearls.”
Daphne du Maurier, Rebecca

Daphne du Maurier
“We can never go back again, that much is certain. The past is still close to us. The things we have tried to forget and put behind us would stir again, and that sense of fear, of furtive unrest, struggling at length to blind unreasoning panic - now mercifully stilled, thank God - might in some manner unforeseen become a living companion as it had before.”
Daphne Du Maurier, Rebecca

Daphne du Maurier
“Every moment was a precious thing, having in it the essence of finality.”
Daphne du Maurier, Rebecca

Daphne du Maurier
“They are not brave, the days when we are twenty-one. They are full of little cowardices, little fears without foundation, and one is so easily bruised, so swiftly wounded, one falls to the first barbed word. To-day, wrapped in the complacent armour of approaching middle age, the infinitesimal pricks of day by day brush one but lightly and are soon forgotten, but then—how a careless word would linger, becoming a fiery stigma, and how a look, a glance over a shoulder, branded themselves as things eternal.”
Daphne du Maurier, Rebecca
