Quotes by Madeleine L'Engle

The following are quotes from Madeleine L'Engle:

It's a good thing to have all the props pulled out from under us occasionally. It gives us some sense of what is rock under our feet, and what is sand.

Nothing is hopeless, we must hope for everything.

That's the way things come clear. All of a sudden. And then you realize how obvious they've been all along.

The great thing about getting older is that you don't lose all the other ages you've been.

We can't take any credit for our talents. It's how we use them that counts.

When we were children, we used to think that when we were grown-up we would no longer be vulnerable. But to grow up is to accept vulnerability... To be alive is to be vulnerable.
