Quotes by Jamie Langston Turner  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“We must never forget that our small, daily acts can total a great sum of love. They can be the stars by which others find their way through the dark voyage of life.”
Jamie Langston Turner, By the Light of a Thousand Stars

“I knew that were I ever to emerge from my darkness to seek a more excellent way of living...this must be my first step: to choose to forgive. It was a dangerous and desperate step, but how I yearned for the respite it could afford - if indeed there were any respite to be had.
p 233”
Jamie Langston Turner, Some Wildflower in My Heart

“an insidious form of pride had crept into my heart and taken up residence: the pride of suffering.
p 297”
Jamie Langston Turner, Some Wildflower in My Heart
