“Everything I am inside is pink and blue. Pastels without, soft clouds above, blue sky everywhere with an occasional rain but from renewal, not anger. My mind has no boundaries. Its floor is poetry, the wallpaper music. The windows are always open to allow the humor to drift in and out. The furniture is made of air, I am forever floating.”
Kimberly Jo Smith

“There is not a lost piece of yourself that can't be found in a good novel.”
Kimberly Jo Smith

“The time we waste is equal to the distance between ourselves and the iron rod.”
Kimberly Jo Smith

“There is nothing I would not do for those who are really my friends. I have no notion of loving people by halves, it is not my nature.”
Jane Austen, Northanger Abbey
