Top 10 Anna Lyndsey Quotes (2025 Update)

Anna Lyndsey Quote: “When I finish a book, I find I cannot start another one immediately. Each book needs time to settle in my mind, to be digested like a meal of many courses. It seems disrespectful to the characters to move on too quickly – after all, I have spent hours in their company, learnt their histories, looked on at significant moments of their lives.”

Anna Lyndsey Quote: “Friendship plants itself as a small unobtrusive seed; over time, it grows thick roots that wrap around your heart.

Only after time has passed do you recognise that it is dead, and you are left, for years afterwards, pulling dry brown fibres from your chest.”

Anna Lyndsey Quote: “Animals in zoos and prisoners sleep many hours a day. Like them I have become a devotee, a voluptuary of sleep, a connoisseur of its intense, uncharted pleasures. Sleep slips the chains of this life, snaps the intimate fetters of my skin, sets me free to travel the wild landscapes of the ungoverned mind.”

Anna Lyndsey Quote: “My ears become my conduit to the world. In the darkness I listen – to thrillers, to detective novels, to romances; to family sagas, potboilers and historical novels; to ghost stories and classic fiction and chick lit; to bonkbusters and history books. I listen to good books and bad books, great books and terrible books; I do not discriminate. Steadily, hour after hour, in the darkness I consume them all.”

And he has not asked me. And that is the miracle which I live with, every day.”
