Language is a finding-place not a hiding place.

Pain is very often a maimed creature without a mouth.

Time is a player. Time is part of today, not simply a measure of its passing.

In the space between chaos and shape there was another chance.

When I look at my life I realise that the mistakes I have made, the things I really regret, were not errors of judgement but failures of feeling.

Make three wishes and they shall all come true. Make three hundred and I will honour every one

Jeanette Winterson 632 quotes

What is remembered is not a de...

What is remembered is not a deed in stone but a metaphor. Meta = above. Pheren = to carry. That which is carried above the literalness of life. A way of thinking that avoids the problems of gravity. The word won't let me down. The single word that can release me from all that unuttered weight.

Jeanette Winterson 632 quotes

Two things significantly disti...

Two things significantly distinguish human beings from the other animals; an interest in the past and the possibility of language. Brought together they make a third: Art. The invisible city not calculated to exist. Beyond the lofty pretensions of the merely ceremonial, long after the dramatic connivings of plitical life, like it or not, it remains. Time past eternally present and undestroyed.

A bridge is a meeting place . . . a possibility, a metaphor.

If we had the courage to love we would not so value these acts of war.

We are told not to privilege one story above another. All the stories must be told. Well, maybe that's true, maybe all stories are worth hearing, but not all stories are worth telling.

Jeanette Winterson 632 quotes

We live in a world of buy it o...

We live in a world of buy it or leave it. Love does not signify.

I have a list of titles that I leave at the [library] desk, because they are bound to be written some day, and it's best to be ahead of the queue.

Jeanette Winterson 632 quotes

Names are still magic; even Sh...

Names are still magic; even Sharon, Karen, Darren, and Warren are magic to somebody somewhere. In fairy stories, naming is knowledge. When I know your name, I can call your name, and when I call your name, you'll come to me.

Jeanette Winterson 632 quotes

The future is foretold from th...

The future is foretold from the past and the future is only possible because of the past. Without past and future, the present is partial. All time is eternally present and so all time is ours. There is no sense in forgetting and every sense in dreaming. Thus the present is made rich.

There is no sense in loving someone you can never wake up to except by chance.

I have a head for heights it's true, but no stomach for the depths. Strange then to have plumbed so many.

Stories end in reverie, tragedy, or forgiveness.

There's no story that's the start of itself.

You don't get over it because 'it' is the person you loved.
