Hello Beautiful Quotes
- I have no interest in dating. Dating is about getting dressed up and pretending you’re a pretty girl who thinks about nothing but marriage and babies. I don’t think about those things, and it makes me sad to pretend to be something I’m not. – Quote from Hello Beautiful book by Ann Napolitano
- Weddings made her uncomfortable. They were too showy, too public. Deep love between two people was a private, wordless endeavor, and to place the lovers in fancy clothes in front of a crowd seemed antithetical to the nature of the thing. – Quote from Hello Beautiful book by Ann Napolitano
- When you grew up in a crowded, small house like they had, much of the dream of adulthood became living somewhere less crowded. Somewhere that was your own and didn’t need to be shared. – Quote from Hello Beautiful book by Ann Napolitano
- You’re too young to really understand that life is short, but it is. I didn’t want to stop you when you were walking away from something that didn’t matter to do something that did. You and I are cut from the same cloth, baby girl. Neither of us would expect school or work to fill us up. We look out the window, or into ourselves, for something more. – Quote from Hello Beautiful book by Ann Napolitano
- Studying history was about scope, about understanding the terrain that surrounded the critical event. Nothing and no one existed in a vacuum. – Quote from Hello Beautiful book by Ann Napolitano
- It’s not insane to be depressed in this world. It’s more sane than being happy. I never trust those upbeat individuals who grin no matter what’s going on. Those are the ones with a screw loose, if you ask me. – Quote from Hello Beautiful book by Ann Napolitano
- Life was opportunity, a chest of drawers to open, one after the other. – Quote from Hello Beautiful book by Ann Napolitano
- It’s a horrible thing to be a divorced woman. Men can recover from a marriage ending, but women don’t. – Quote from Hello Beautiful book by Ann Napolitano
- We all run into a wall at full speed at one point or another. A wife’s role is to stand by her husband when that happens. Twenty years from now, you’ll look back together on this time and it’ll look like a small blip in your marriage. You’ll be glad you stuck it out. – Quote from Hello Beautiful book by Ann Napolitano
- We don’t choose who we love, because who you love changes everything. – Quote from Hello Beautiful book by Ann Napolitano
- Dying was simply going to be an exercise in letting go of one thing after another. – Quote from Hello Beautiful book by Ann Napolitano
- When an old person dies, even if that person is wonderful, he or she is still somewhat ready, and so are the people who loved them. They’re like old trees, whose roots have loosened in the ground. They fall gently. But when someone like your aunt Sylvie dies – before her time – her roots get pulled out and the ground is ripped up. Everyone nearby is in danger of being knocked over. – Quote from Hello Beautiful book by Ann Napolitano
- It’s so silly, but I thought life here would have frozen when I left. That if I did come back, it would all be the same. But it’s not. It’s much bigger. – Quote from Hello Beautiful book by Ann Napolitano
