Favorite Kaye Gibbons Quotes

1. "In closing, I hope everything helps show that I wouldn't be a fade-out or a person who turns to think to drink or dope when things get tough.

2. "Unless society came out past Flat Rock Crossroads, kept on past Booker T. High School, hung two rights, a left, turned in on Milk Farm Road and found Roland plowing a tobacco field, jerked him off the tractor, warped him and set him back up there without anybody riding by and noticing, blame can't be laid on society." ~ Kaye Gibbons

10. "A woman's name will always suffice, but if you'll keep your ears open in a room with men and women, you'll hear it's the call used least often." ~ Kaye Gibbons
11. "I might be confused sometimes in my head but it is not something you need to talk about. Before you can talk you have to line it all up in order and I had rather just let it swirl around until I am too tired to think. You just let the motion in your head wear you out. Never think about it. You just make a bigger mess that way." ~ Kaye Gibbons
12. "You'll find your one-in-a-million. But you're sharp enough to know there's no point in sludging through the first nine hundred, ninety-nine thousand, and ninety-nine to get to him." ~ Kaye Gibbons
13. "That's all my grandfather was guilty of, fear, faith in his words, but that was a high crime in her eyes. That's all Jack was guilty of that day, but I've lived with him a good while and I believe I understand him. Sometimes it might take an afternoon or evening of being here in this kitchen alone, thinking, but I can usually come to see his reasons through his ways. And half the job of finding peace is finding understanding. Don't you believe it to be so?" ~ Kaye Gibbons
