“She realised with an intense, wonderful rush that love didn't make you weak. It made you vulnerable, but it also made you strong.”
―
Kate Hewitt,
The Greek Tycoon's Convenient Bride
“You had the unimaginable luxury of thinking deep thoughts and pursuing endless intellectual conversations, of reveling in simple pleasures with the implicit permission to be totally self-absorbed. Then you grew up, and life hit you in the face with a two-by-four.” ― Kate Hewitt, Redemption Falls
“the only way to be different is to start doing different things.” ― Kate Hewitt, The Secrets We Keep
“anything” ― Kate Hewitt, When You Were Mine
“than” ― Kate Hewitt, The Girl from Berlin
“teacher?” ― Kate Hewitt, Into the Darkest Day
“Does it take a tragedy, the worst kind of tragedy, to make you realize you care about someone? That you love them? That all the minor hurts and fears are just that, minor? Meaningless? Does it take something this terrible to wake you up? Maybe. Maybe. But oh, how I wish it didn’t.” ― Kate Hewitt, And Then He Fell
“because I was still angry. But I needed her to be my mom, to push through my crap and love me anyway. Isn’t that what moms do?” ― Kate Hewitt, When You Were Mine
“But don’t you wonder if technology has got the better of us? Who are we, to manipulate life that way?” ― Kate Hewitt
“There will never be a moment when you weigh your life on the scales, when anything will seem worthwhile to lose it. You can always put it off, convince yourself you can make it count later, for” ― Kate Hewitt, The Girl from Berlin
“How many people stop and really stare into someone’s eyes, never mind actually say something important and real? So much of life is about skimming, and I was okay with that. It felt like enough. It was enough; it was all I needed. Who needs to debate the meaning of life every day of the week? Who needs to confess to their brokenness and jagged pain? Who wants to?” ― Kate Hewitt, The Secrets We Keep
“Why are we all so broken? Why is this world so hard, so brutal and unforgiving, that we can’t navigate it without hurting ourselves? Why does trying to be helped and healed feel like scaling a mountain that just keeps getting higher and higher?” ― Kate Hewitt, The Secrets We Keep
“trance.” ― Kate Hewitt, The Girl from Berlin
“The trouble with owning my children’s successes, I realize, is I have to own their failures, as well.” ― Kate Hewitt, When You Were Mine
“Some of us hide it better, some of us struggle along. But inside, where it matters? Broken.” ― Kate Hewitt, The Secrets We Keep
“Hatred in your heart is like a poison you drink,” Betsie had murmured then, her eyes fluttering closed. “And yet you expect someone else to die from it.” ― Kate Hewitt, The Edelweiss Sisters
“Memory is a very strange, subjective thing. Did you know the more times you recall a particular event, the less likely you are to remember the details accurately? In fact, with each retelling, the memory is likely to transform, even as you are more likely to be assured of the accuracy of your recollection.” ― Kate Hewitt, The Secrets We Keep
“the way it’s supposed to be, but it’s that way for me, and I’m not sure I can manage anything else. ‘Well, be careful,’ Milly says, laying a hand on my arm. ‘I’m saying that for your sake, Anna. I’d hate for you to get hurt.’ Yes, and you’d also hate for me to end up with Jack. I don’t say it, of course, and I feel guilty even for thinking” ― Kate Hewitt, Not My Daughter
