Quotes by Celia Laskey  (?)

“It was a soft kiss that only lasted for about two seconds, but I felt something in my stomach rev, like an old car trying to start. I wanted to see what it would feel like for the engine to turn over.”
Celia Laskey, Under the Rainbow

“All I can say is… grief and joy can sit right beside each other, sometimes. And you might as well give yourself more opportunities for the joy to sit down.”
Celia Laskey, Cover Story

“She often wonders what it must feel like to not feel compelled to perfectly describe a cloud, a sunset, the ocean. To eavesdrop on people in a cafe and not fill in the blanks of their lives with your own imagination.”
Celia Laskey, Cover Story
