Lucy Knisley Quote: “I’m sorry... that it couldn’t last. But part of me is glad that it can exist, whole and lovely and complicated, in my mind.”
Lucy Knisley Quote: “There is an Oscar Wilde quote about looking with a heart of stone upon the one you loved in your youth, at the hair you madly worshipped and wildly kissed.”

Lucy Knisley Quote: “This also deals with the valuable and significant influence that we take in from our mothers, as well as my own struggle toward adulthood at an age when we so desperately cling to our adolescence. With thanks to my mother, for holding the map.”
