Favorite Jean Hanff Korelitz Quotes

1. "Portia remembered her interview in the small office upstairs...in which she had been so shy, so terrified about not being good enough, not getting this thing, this chance, which she had only just discovered she wanted very badly." ~ Jean Hanff Korelitz

2. "She lacked the sheen of money, muscular good health, good skin, good clothes." ~ Jean Hanff Korelitz

3. "Teammates...were fine things. Piling onto the bus before the game, edgy with shared nerves, egging one another on with the genial, meaningless phrase C'mon, you guys!, collapsing back into the same seats for the ride home—the sense of striving in accord had been a sweet part of high school. Possibly the sweetest. But the camaraderie had not survived graduation, or even the off-seasons. Her teammates, passing in the school corridors in winter or spring, were downshifted to nodding acquaintances who had once been close, that past connection floating off like cotton candy on the tongue." ~ Jean Hanff Korelitz

4. "There is a sound to waiting. It sounds like held breath pounding its fists against the walls of the lung, damp and muffled beats." ~ Jean Hanff Korelitz

5. "All ghost stories come to this, she understood. All ghost stories end in one of two ways: You are dead or I am dead. If people only understood this, Portia thought, they would never be frightened, they would only need to ask themselves, Who among us has died?And then she occurred to her that she was the ghost in her story. She had spent years haunting her own life, without ever noticing." ~ Jean Hanff Korelitz

6. "before, mostly for commitment hearings held in a makeshift court" ~ Jean Hanff Korelitz
