More quotes by H. M. Tomlinson
Light comes to us unexpectedly and obliquely. Perhaps it amuses the gods to try us. They want to see whether we are asleep.
H. M. Tomlinson

H. M. Tomlinson

H. M. Tomlinson
There is something about a voyage you are barely aware of while you are making it.
H. M. Tomlinson
