Quote of the Day for Friday, June 2, 2023
Quote is from Go Tell the Bees I Am Gone by Diana Gabaldon, Chapter 147, A Lot of Blood. Copywrite 2021, All Rights Reserved.

Couldn’t do anything from Bees with including this…..

“Listen to me,” I said, after what seemed a long time. His face was closed and white and the rumble of the crowds reached me like distant thunder from a clear blue sky. I felt the sound more through me and I fixed my mind on the blue, vast, and empty, patient, peaceful—waiting for him.

“Listen!” I said, and shook his arm, hard. “You think you’re going to die by inches, but you’re not. You’re going to live by inches. With me.”

“Auntie, he’s dead.” Ian’s voice was low, rough with tears, and his big hand warm on my shoulder. “Come. Stand up now. Let me take him. We’ll bring him home.”

Anyone else bawling buckets like me?
