More quotes by Kristin Hannah
And maybe that was how it was supposed to be...Joy and sadness were part of the package the trick, perhaps,was to let yourself feel all of it, but to hold on to the joy just a little more tightly.
Kristin Hannah
Nobody's strong enough to be a parent. We just do it, blindly, going forward on faith and love and hope. That's all it is...Being afraid...and going on.
Kristin Hannah
To those who are here, those who are gone, and those who are lost.
Kristin Hannah
Then he left her there, standing alone, surrounded by word ghosts things she could have said.
Kristin Hannah
Of course you can fall in love. You just have to let yourself. They don't call it falling for nothing. -Kate
Kristin Hannah
...This fear was unbearable. It unwrapped who she was, as neatly as he'd unwound her bandage, leaving too much pain and ugliness exposed. Nerve endings he'd said they were the problem [causing phantom pain in the amputated limb]. Things that cut off, that ended abruptly or died--like parents and marriages--kept hurting forever.
Kristin Hannah
This is the problem with forever friends. They know too much.
Kristin Hannah
....both had learned that everything could change in an instant, and that the heartfelt vows of people in love were fragile words that, once shattered, could cut so deeply you'd bleed forever.
Kristin Hannah
She had been ready to love this man from the moment she first saw him. In all these years, that had never changed. They'd hurt each other, let each other down, and yet, here they were after everything, together. She needed him now, needed him to remind her that she was live, that she wasn't alone, that she hadn't lost everything.
Kristin Hannah
Hands down, the hardest part for me is coming up with an idea. I spend about 14 months writing a book, and that's a lot of hours spent thinking about a single project. I simply have to love the idea. I'll go through dozens of workable ideas until I find the one that lights my fire.
Kristin Hannah
It is a kiss that, once begun, never really ends. Interrupted, yes. Paused, certainly. But from that very moment onward, Vera sees the whole of her life as only a breath away from kissing him again. On that night in the park, they begin the delicate task of binding their souls together, creating a whole comprising their separate halves.
Kristin Hannah
but sometimes one person can hold you up in life, keep you standing, and without that hand to hold, you can find yourself free-falling no matter how strong you used to be, no matter how hard you try to remain steady.
Kristin Hannah
I might screw up, I might embarrass you, I might yell at you, but I will never, ever stop loving you. You're my first born. The first time I held you... I fell in love so hard it cracked my bones.
Kristin Hannah
Memories are who we are. In the end, that's all the luggage you take with you. Love and Memories are what last.
Kristin Hannah
Oh, Mia. You haven’t even begun to find out who you really are, and, believe me, other boys are going to fall in love with you. If a guy can’t see how special you are, he isn’t good enough for you.
Kristin Hannah
She is like a child picking at a scab, unable to stop herself even though she knows it will hurt.
Kristin Hannah
The measure of a society is its compassion.
Kristin Hannah
Marriages go through hard times. Sometimes you have to get in there and fight for your love. That's the only way for it to get better.
Kristin Hannah
I know about forgiving people and loving them anyway, even after they hurt you.
Kristin Hannah
She waited for you in a thousand different ways.
