More quotes by Marian Keyes
I think denial's fascinating. It's a jokey word, but it really happens, and sometimes in enormous ways.
Marian Keyes
smarter than me. But here's the thing my life did get better. I made a decision to let go of my dreams, because they were killing me, and I stopped asking the impossible of myself. I changed my attitude and decided to focus on what I had rather than what i didn't have.
Marian Keyes
I sighed. What is life but fleeting moments of happiness strung together on necklace of despair?
Marian Keyes
Medically speaking, there is no such thing as a nervous breakdown. Which is very annoying to discover when you're right in the middle of one.
Marian Keyes
What doesn't kill us makes us funnier.
Marian Keyes
Although will never love anyone again, don't want to become bitter. Or creative.

Marian Keyes
I went grey at 12, my eyesight went at 17. I've been a crock from very early on.
Marian Keyes
Chick Lit uses humor to reflect life back to us. It's a very comforting genre, and it's the first time our generation has had a voice. It's a very important genre for all of those reasons.
Marian Keyes
I used to feel defensive when people would say, 'Yes, but your books have happy endings', as if that made them worthless, or unrealistic. Some people do get happy endings, even if it's only for a while. I would rather never be published again than write a downbeat ending.
Marian Keyes
I've never made a secret of the fact that I'd have loved to have children.
Marian Keyes
Love and kindness go hand in hand.
Marian Keyes
I knew it, I just knew it! The person who had the job of writing my life's dialogue used to work on a very low budget soap opera.
Marian Keyes
Minsk! How pissed-off that sounded! It was great. You could scare the bejayzus out of someone if you said it right.
Marian Keyes
Baking makes me focus. On weighing the sugar. On sieving the flour. I find it calming and rewarding because, in fairness, it is sort of magic - you start off with all this disparate stuff, such as butter and eggs, and what you end up with is so totally different. And also delicious.
Marian Keyes
Her world had shrunk - no matter who she was with, she'd prefer to be with him. That's what happened when you fell in love - you only want to see them.
Marian Keyes
Slasher Hathaway marks his territory by spending money. He might as well have pissed on her. It means nothing.
Marian Keyes
Do I mind being called a chick-lit writer? Well, it's not the worst thing that could happen.
Marian Keyes
I'd rather dig a ditch than go to a dinner party with people I don't know.
Marian Keyes
The best anyone can do is breathe in, breathe out and wait for it to pass.
