More quotes by Erin Morgenstern
I am a fan of magic and fantasy, particularly when it's grounded in reality.
Erin Morgenstern
They say it's darkest before the dawn, but it also tend to be quietest, and the quiet lets you hear yourself better.
Erin Morgenstern
I am already married, she remarks to the empty air, twisting the ring on her right hand that covers an sold, distinctive scar.
Erin Morgenstern
I have absurdly vivid dreams.
Erin Morgenstern
It's helpful for me to get ideas - the physical action of painting. Sometimes it frees up your writer brain. It's nice for me now that the writing has become a serious career that painting can become more like a hobby.
Erin Morgenstern
Most maidens are perfectly capable of rescuing themselves in my experience, at least the ones worth something, in any case.

Erin Morgenstern
The truest tales require time and familiarity to become what they are.
Erin Morgenstern
I think I get some of my love of adult books that can be fun from Douglas Adams.
Erin Morgenstern

Erin Morgenstern
The night that seemed endless hours before is now slipping through your fingers, ticking by as it falls into the past and pushes you towards the future.
Erin Morgenstern
I have tried to let you go and I cannot. I cannot stop thinking of you. I cannot stop dreaming about you.
Erin Morgenstern
This is not magic. This is the way the world is, only very few people take the time to stop and note it.
Erin Morgenstern
I saw in details while she saw in scope. Not seeing the scope is why I am here and she is not. I took each element spearately and never looked to see that they never did fit together properly
Erin Morgenstern
I am tired of trying to hold things together that cannot be held.
Erin Morgenstern
Only the ship is made of books, its sails thousands of overlapping pages, and the sea it floats upon is dark black ink.
Erin Morgenstern
Where do you get your ideas? people ask. Sometimes they’re at the bottoms of cups of tea. Sometimes they’re lurking in my shower. Sometimes they’re waiting patiently in glass cases in museums.
Erin Morgenstern
You don't have to be a chef or even a particularly good cook to experience proper kitchen alchemy: the moment when ingredients combine to form something more delectable than the sum of their parts.
Erin Morgenstern
He forgets that he was someone's dream once, himself.
Erin Morgenstern
I binge write. I think it's because I started seriously writing by participating in National Novel Writing Month, an online-based challenge to write 50,000 words in 30 days.
