More quotes by Laurell K. Hamilton

Zerbrowski said, Try not. Do. Or do not. There is no try. It took me a second to realize that he had just quoted Star Wars to me. It made me smile, and in that moment I loved him, just for that.

Laurell K. Hamilton
Can you truly love anyone if you do not first love yourself? If you hate yourself, can you love anyone else? If you do not accept all of who you are, can you accept anyone else? Hard questions. It remains to be seen whether I get any answers, hard, or otherwise.

I got out my jar of ointment. I knew animators who had special containers for the ointment. Crockery, hand-blown glass, mystical symbols carved into the sides. I used an old Mason jar that had once held Grandma Blake's green beans. Larry fished out a peanut butter jar with the label still on it. Extra-crunchy. Yum-Yum.
