The painful things seemed like knots on a beautiful necklace, necessary for keeping the beads in place.
Anita Diament
Making plans is a game. Life chooses for you.
Anita Diament
Shakespeare in Love... such smart writing of an alternative view of history, and such beautiful acting. Like most Americans, I'm a sucker for the accent.

Anita Diament
He was golden and beautiful as a sunset.
Anita Diament
Egypt loved the lotus becuase it never dies. It is the same for people who are loved. Thus can something as insignificant as a name-two syllables, one high, one sweet- summon up the innumerable smiles, tears, sighs and dreams of a human life.
Anita Diament
They sang the words in unison, yet somehow created a web of sounds with their voices. It was like hearing a piece of fabric woven with all the colors of a rainbow. I did not know that such beauty could be formed by the human mouth. I had never heard harmony before.
Anita Diament
I love many kinds of music: world music, jazz, classical, pop.
Anita Diament
The more I do bookstores, the more people come up to me from church groups. I spoke at Pittsburg State College and had 2 or 3 ministers and book groups from a couple of churches.
Anita Diament
I pray I die before they day comes when I do not know if my sons are infants or grandfathers.
Anita Diament
I could not get my fill of looking. There should be a song for women to sing at this moment or a prayer to recite. But perhaps there is none because there are no words strong enough to name that moment.
