Quotes From "The Art Of Mending" By Elizabeth Berg

1
There are random moments - tossing a salad, coming up the driveway to the house, ironing the seams flat on a quilt square, standing at the kitchen window and looking out at the delphiniums, hearing a burst of laughter from one of my children's rooms - when I feel a wavelike rush of joy. This is my true religion: arbitrary moments of of nearly painful happiness for a life I feel privileged to lead. Elizabeth Berg

You are born into your family and your family is born into you. No returns. No exchanges. Elizabeth Berg
