If there were only one truth, you couldn't paint a hundred canvases on the same theme.

To write a novel is to embark on a quest that is very romantic. People have visions, and the next step is to execute them. That's a very romantic project. Like Edvard Munch's strange dreamlike canvases where people are stylized, like 'The Scream.' Munch must have had that vision in a dream, he never saw it.

Translate your battles onto blank canvases for there are others walking alongside you. You are their light when they want to give up. It's okay to not feel okay, but please stay connected. @reenadossauthor

I love all things, not only the grand but the infinitely small: thimble, spurs, plates, flower vases.....

Lost opportunities, lost possibilities, feelings we can never get back. That's part of what it means to be alive. But inside our heads - at least that's where I imagine it - there's a little room where we store those memories. A room like the stacks in this library. And to understand the workings of our own heart we have to keep on making new reference cards. We have to dust things off every once in awhile, let in fresh air, change the water in the flower vases. In other words, you'll live forever in your own private library.
