Quote by Libby Page

“It was rare that she got dressed up and went out, but each time a dinner party or the Christmas dinner with the other library staff came round she would stand in front of the mirror asking George to tell her if the dress was too short or too long, whether her makeup was okay, and if her hair looked fussy or too plain. He always smiled and told her she looked beautiful but she didn't believe him. She would believe him now - she was beautiful. She hopes Kate realizes it before she is eighty-seven.”

“Leggere un oggetto significa dimenticare un po' se stessi per fare posto al passato di un altro, mentre attraversare gli specchi significa affrontare se stessi. Ci vuole fegato per guardarsi negli occhi, vedersi per ciò che si è, immergersi nel proprio riflesso. Quelli che si mettono un velo davanti alla faccia, che mentono a se stessi e si vedono migliori di ciò che sono non ce la faranno mai. Credimi, non è cosa da tutti!”
