“...we are all sorry when loss comes for us. The test of our character comes not in how many tears we shed but in how we act after those tears have dried.”

Michelle Moran,
Madame Tussaud: A Novel of the French Revolution
“You'll know if he loves you by how long he's willing to fight.” ― Michelle Moran, The Heretic Queen
“Sometimes, it is not the kings and queen who make for the most fascinating history but the shadowy souls who happen to be in the right place at the right time.” ― Michelle Moran, Madame Tussaud: A Novel of the French Revolution
“I wonder if our names determine our destiny, or if destiny leads us to choose certain names.” ― Michelle Moran, Nefertiti
“This is how memories are; what seems so clear and unforgettable at one moment vanishes like steam the next.” ― Michelle Moran, The Heretic Queen
“And when that time comes, let's hope your friends outnumber your enemies.” ― Michelle Moran, Cleopatra's Daughter
“You can't change the desert. You can only take the fastest course through it. Wishing it's an oasis won't make it so...” ― Michelle Moran, Nefertiti
“If you have ever met someone who rarely reads, then you will understand the blank look Moti gave me. For nonreaders, life is simply what they touch and see, not what they feel when they open the pages of a play and are transported to the Forest of Arden or Illyria. Where the world is full of a thousand colors for those who love books, I suspect it is simply black and gray to everyone else. A tree is a tree to them; it is never a magical doorway to another world populated with beings that don’t exist here.” ― Michelle Moran, Rebel Queen
“Nothing is forever...nothing lasts.” ― Michelle Moran, Nefertiti
“I'm not staring. I'm observing. . . . And what do you observe? . . . A brave young woman who has always fought for what was right, even when it was unpopular.” ― Michelle Moran, Cleopatra's Daughter
“Even in the most wretched life, there’s hope.” ― Michelle Moran, Cleopatra's Daughter
“What I think and what Iam prepared to say are entirely different things.” ― Michelle Moran, Madame Tussaud: A Novel of the French Revolution
“...she refused to leave anything to someone else that she could do better herself.” ― Michelle Moran, Cleopatra's Daughter
“You want it to feel like a surprise. You want to keep him guessing whether he'll make you smile entirely so that when you do, he will feel like he's been given a gift.” ― Michelle Moran, The Heretic Queen
“But that's how the heart is. Stubborn and foolish.” ― Michelle Moran, Madame Tussaud: A Novel of the French Revolution
“Where the world is full of a thousand colors for those who love books, I suspect it is simply black and gray to everyone else.” ― Michelle Moran, Rebel Queen
“My love is unique an none can rival her. Just by passing, she has already stolen away my heart.” ― Michelle Moran, Nefertiti
“I'd always thought I would feel like an animal released from its cage when my student days were finished, I felt more like a bird that had been pushed from its nest and told it must fly.” ― Michelle Moran
“I don't think unhappiness is fated.” ― Michelle Moran, Cleopatra's Daughter
