long might tomorrow
He might be tall enough to see into tomorrow, but he hadn’t looked there in a long, long time. He’d forgotten how bright it was. So bright he could hardly stand it.
way bears easier
She'd always known he didn't love her. But it was easier to bear when he didn't know she loved him. That way they were even. Now he knew he had all the power.
soul stubborn changing-your-life
For stubborn souls like Lisette, death was easier than the courage it took to actually change your life.
self self-respect easy
You'd be surprised how easy some things can be, things you never thought you'd do, when you take self-respect out of the equation.
people together blank
Blank-slate friendships were thin and temperamental. She knew that. There was no history there to cement people together, for better or worse.
hurt one-thing love-always
Love always hurts. That’s one thing I know you know. But it’s worth it. That’s what you don’t know. Yet.
life-is
Life is about experience... You can't hold on to everything

Men of thoughtless actions are always surprised by consequences.

Why were girls in such a hurry to grow up? Agatha would never understand. Childhood was magical. Leaving it behind was a magnificent loss.
girl silly mean
Those silly girls had no idea what they were really celebrating. They had no idea what it took to bring Agatha and her friends together seventy-five years ago. The Women's Society Club had been about supporting one another, about banding together to protect one another because no one else would. But it had turned into an ugly beast, a means by which rich ladies would congratulate themselves by giving money to the poor. And Agatha had let it happen. All her life, it seemed, she was making up for things she let happen.
