Liane Moriarty Quote: “As Jane looked around her, she felt that dissatisfied feeling she often experienced when she was somewhere new and lovely. She couldn’t quite articulate it except with the words “if only I were here”. This little beachside cafe was so exquisite, she longed to really be there – except, of course, she was there, so it didn’t make sense.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “Claire was Troy’s ex-wife, once a much-loved member of the family, just like Indira and to a lesser extent, Grant. It was like a death each time her children broke up with someone, and over the years there had been many, many deaths.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “That was the secret of a happy marriage: step away from the rage.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “She didn’t believe in alternate realities. She believed in the transcendent power of love, memory and imagination. ‘Anything is possible.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “When she was a child her mother had once told her shyness was almost a form of selfishness. “You see, when you hang your head like that, darling, people think you don’t like them!” Tess had taken that to heart. She grew up and learned how to make small talk with a thumping heart. She forced herself to make eye contact, even when her nerves were screaming at her to look away, look away! “Bit.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “They’d been too tired to keep sharpening the edges of their hurt feelings.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “An attractive, elegant, slim woman. The sort of woman she never thought it was possible for her to be. She had become one of those women, those other women, who had seemed too perfectly put together to be real.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “Oh my Lord... she’d seduced her brother-in-law with butter.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “She’s very loving – maybe too loving. I remember her squatting down in the kitchen saying, ‘Hello, little fella,’ and we all looked down and saw she was trying to pat a cockroach. Mum nearly dropped dead on the spot.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “There’s not a damned thing wrong with your body. You are average-sized, you deluded fool! You are an attractive, intelligent woman, you idiot! You should spend January lying in a hammock and eating cheese.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “Listeria, wisteria. Ha. Funny words. She.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “One epidural for my headache, please.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “She knew one tiny grandchild was all it would take to stop the silence roaring, to make her days splutter back to life again, but you could not ask your children for grandchildren.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “Friendship and holidays. A swimming pool. Champagne and sunshine and laughter. It seemed like a dream life.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “She thought it was illegal to watch television when the sun was shining.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “So that’s how she lived with it. She did it the way so many people lived with their regrets and mistakes. They simply rewrote their stories. Her mother had re-created herself as a devoted mother: as if ballet had been her daughter’s favorite extracurricular activity, not her own obsession.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “She always forgot how pain was so upsetting. Cruel. It hurt your feelings. You just wanted it to stop, please, right now.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “For the first time in her sixty-nine years she felt the fear: the fear every woman knows is always waiting for her, the possibility that lurks and scuttles in the shadows of her mind, even if she’s spent her entire life being so tenderly loved and protected by good men.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “I must eat,” said Amy. “Brooke, go tell Mum we have to eat something now because you’re getting a migraine.” “You tell her you have to eat because you’re having a panic attack,” retorted Brooke. “Tell her Logan is hungry,” said Troy. “She won’t want Logan to be hungry.” “I told her I was hungry an hour ago,” said Logan.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “Scans showed that the brain activity of someone who had taken psilocybin bore striking similarities to the brain of an experienced meditator during deep meditation.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “When he first met her odd, detached parents he understood that Heather had grown up starved of love, and when you’re starved of something you should receive in abundance, you never quite trust it.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “I hate you all. For no particular reason. I guess it’s for the sympathy, the pity and understanding, but most of all, for the hope.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “She wanted to see it clearly, to understand that it wasn’t all black, or all white. It was a million colors. And.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “But love after you’ve hurt each other and forgiven each other, bored each other and surprised each other, after you’ve seen the worst and the best – that sort of a love is ineffable. It deserves its own word.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “He told Harry that he had to win prize money so his sister could get some kind of life-saving medicine. Dumb kid thought he was playing to save his sister’s life. No wonder he cheated. If he’d stayed with me, I would have found out and put a stop to.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “It seems to make no difference that she still feels exactly the same person as when she was twenty-five, the birthdays just keep right on coming.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “Maybe, thought Alice fearfully, the other Alice who has been living my life for the last ten years isn’t very nice.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “The doctors would fix her head and everything would be OK. She began shoving things back into the backpack. As she picked up the leather-bound diary, a photo fell out. It was a photo of three children in school uniform. It was obviously a posed shot because they were sitting in a row on a step with their elbows on their knees and their chins in their hands. There were two girls and a boy. The boy was in the middle. He had.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “Amy, who was handling lockdown far better than her friends, because they had never experienced the permanent low-level sense of existential dread that Amy had been experiencing since she was eight years old.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “It felt pointless celebrating without other people, as if the whole objective had always been to perform the festivities for an audience.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “He’d forgotten how you had to up your volume when all the Delaneys were together.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “Full-time work caused a kind of claustrophobic terror to build and build within her chest until one day there was a humiliating emotional spillage that resulted in her termination or resignation.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “She’d take Jane Turner’s brisk snippiness any day over this woman’s prissy sweetness with its razor-sharp edges.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “It was extraordinary the way her body knew how to do things – the mobile phone, the makeup, the lock – without her mind remembering her ever having done them before.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “Alice walked into the kitchen one day and found Tom carefully stuffing his nose with frozen peas. I wanted to see if the peas would come out of my eyeballs, he told the doctor.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “I can’t believe they let us name a person,” Nick had said. “It feels like something only the King of the Land should be able to do.” “Or the Queen of the Kingdom,” Alice said. “Oh, they’d never let a woman name a person,” said Nick. “Obviously.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “She has become so irritatingly optimistic ever since she took up salsa dancing.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “My God, she despised spaghetti bolognese. Night after night after night, plate after plate after plate. The laundry, the ironing, the mopping, the sweeping, the driving. She’d never resented it at the time but now she resented every moment, every single bloody lamb chop.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “Accepting or allowing what happens or what others do, without active response or resistance.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “Maybe this doctor was one of those brilliant people who are hopeless with normal stuff like dates.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “It wasn’t just that her memories of the last ten years were back. It was that her true self, as formed by those ten years, was back. As seductive as it might have been to erase the grief and pain of the last ten years, it was also a lie. Young Alice was a fool. A sweet, innocent fool. Young Alice hadn’t experienced ten years of living.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “That’s true,” she’d said, amazed and terrified by the thought. A toddler: an actual miniature person, created by them, belonging to them, separate from them.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “It was like every fight she’d ever had with her sisters. A wave of rage would sweep her up and carry her high and righteous until she did something embarrassingly excessive. Then it would dump her, splat, leaving her stupid and small.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “Zach was still there. He wasn’t going anywhere. He was going to stick around while she finished uni and traveled and got a job and got married and got old. Just because he chose death didn’t mean Zoe couldn’t choose life. He was still there in her heart and her memory, and he was going to stay beside her, keeping her company right until the end.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “Her cup size didn’t suit either her personality or profession but she was descended from a long line of short, acerbic, busty women, and so this was her lot.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “You don’t know my age, you darling idiot, so how do you know I look great for it?”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “Grandchildren would be her second chance to get it right. Now she had the time and the eggs to spare, and she would be present with her grandchildren.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “Finally she stopped resisting and called a truce. Young Alice was allowed to stay as long as she didn’t eat too much chocolate. Now it seemed like she could twist the lens on her life and see it from two entirely different perspectives. The perspective of her younger self. Her younger, sillier, innocent self. And her older, wiser, more cynical and sensible self. And maybe sometimes Young Alice had a point.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “I’d be at work, where people respected my opinions,” said Nick. “And then I’d come home and it was like I was the village idiot. I’d pack the dishwasher the wrong way. I’d pick the wrong clothes for the children. I stopped offering to help. It wasn’t worth the criticism.”
Liane Moriarty Quote: “They were sitting on the couch chatting politely with me, not touching, or so it seemed, except that I happened to glance down and I saw that their hands were lying next to each other on the couch, and that Nick was caressing Alice’s little finger with his own. I remember being shocked by a feeling of pure envy. I wanted to be Alice, young and lovely, feeling the secret caress of a handsome boy’s fingertip.”
