Dreams of Falling
Quotes from the Book
So you could be a modern, liberal woman and do the asking instead.
But even strong, independent women could be flattered by men chasing after them.
But her mother was nothing if not amazing.
Plenty of strange things happen in life — and in death.
Being with him seemed to spark something inside her. A light she hadn’t known she had. In him she could sense a kindred spirit. Someone who felt passionately about glamour and sparkle in the same way she did. Someone who made everything fall into place.
Being in love — even if the object of her affection was totally unaware of it — was a bewildering yet exciting sensation.
It’s nice to think that the beauty of a place can make us forget everything.
I’ve never been a victim. I’m in charge of my own life and I can handle everything it throws at me. And if I’ve made a mistake, I can accept it and move on.
It’s a bit of a mantra. I learned it when I was younger.
Life would be boring if we always got it right first time,. You should know that it’s how you react to your mistakes that’s the important thing. What you learn and how you get back up after being knocked down.
I’m not really a believer in old times any more. In fact, tonight was all about moving on for me.
Tonight was a difficult night for me. There’s only so much I can process in one go.
It’s up to you. It always was. It always will be.
