Lord John had been nothing but courtesy itself to me. More than that, he had been intelligent, thoughtful-thoroughly charming, in fact. And listening to him making intelligent, thoughtful, charming conversation with Jamie knotted my insides and made me clench my hands under cover of the quilt. You are an idiot, I told myself, savagely.
~Claire Fraser – from “Drums of Autumn” (Outlander) by Diana Gabaldon
Hello, and welcome. My name is Silvia. As an author and a deep believer in the power of language, I have curated this collection of quotes to help others navigate the complexities of life, especially those experiencing grief and loss. Having personally lost two of my children—one at birth and one at 25 to the complexities of Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa—I am deeply committed to advocacy for grieving families and the disability community. My goal is to share wisdom that provides solace and strength. I hope you find what you need here today, and I invite you to subscribe to my newsletter to receive further inspiration in your inbox.
