“Why is the measure of love loss?”
― Jeanette Winterson, Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal?

“When I look at my life I realise that the mistakes I have made, the things I really regret, were not errors of judgement but failures of feeling.”
― Jeanette Winterson

“It's not the one thing nor the other that leads to madness, but the space in between.”
― Jeanette Winterson

“I live in the space between chaos and shape. I walk the line that continually threatens to lose its tautness under me, dropping me into the dark pit where there is no meaning. At other times the line is so wired that it lights up the soles of my feet, gradually my whole body, until I am my own beacon, and I see then the beauty of newly created worlds, a form that is not random. A new beginning.”
― Jeanette Winterson, The World and Other Places: Stories
