Quotes by Lucy Powrie  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“It is a truth universally acknowledged that any book lover in want of a good book will always find one in a library.”
Lucy Powrie, The Paper & Hearts Society

“Is there anything in a world more magical than a library?”
Lucy Powrie, Read with Pride

“The book ceased to be just a book. It began to be a pathway into understanding yourself, and ultimately accepting that who you are is who you are and you shouldn't have to change yourself for anyone.”
Lucy Powrie, Read with Pride

Topics Mentioning This Author

“He's more myself than I am. Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same.”
Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights

“I wish I were a girl again, half-savage and hardy, and free.”
Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights

“If all else perished, and he remained, I should still continue to be; and if all else remained, and he were annihilated, the universe would turn to a mighty stranger.”
Emily Jane Brontë , Wuthering Heights

“I have dreamt in my life, dreams that have stayed with me ever after, and changed my ideas; they have gone through and through me, like wine through water, and altered the color of my mind. And this is one: I'm going to tell it - but take care not to smile at any part of it.”
Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights

“Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong! - I have as much soul as you, - and full as much heart! And if God had gifted me with some beauty and much wealth, I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you!”
Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre
