About MeMy Movellas - My Mumbles - Favourites
“I hope she'll be a fool -- that's the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool.”-The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. This is definitely not the way I think about women, though rather it sums up, almost, the essence of the 20s in which the book is set. The heights of decadence, glory, revelry and beneath it the hollowness and the echoing tinking of champagne glasses. Besides, gotta love Daisy Buchanan.
“I have hated words and I have loved them, and I hope I have made them right.”-The Book Thief by Markus Zusak. One of my all time favourite books; this quote is just so relevant and powerful, especially to a writer.
"People think pleasing God is all God care about. But any fool living in the world can see it always trying to please us back.”-The Color Purple by Alice Walker. I'm not spiritual, but every time I think of this one quote, I smile.
