“Everything breaks if you hit it hard enough.”
― Hannah Tinti, The Twelve Lives of Samuel Hawley
“I have a good eye,” said Benjamin. “Most of the time I can look at a person and see their whole life. Small things give them away. That farmer, for instance. I could tell by the way he tied his shoes that he’d never traveled more than twenty miles from his home, and it was unlikely that he’d follow us for long. And that Father John of yours. I knew he had something hidden in that sleeve. And I knew he’d use it on you. The only thing I didn’t know was if you deserved it.”
― Hannah Tinti, The Good Thief
“When death comes, she said, all that matters is this: to be next to one another. My mother was wearing a silk dress, and as she pressed her fingers into his, all of my father’s adventures and hard living melted away. He knew that he had met the woman he would love until he couldn’t love anymore.”
― Hannah Tinti, The Good Thief
“At times Ren felt like he was reading fragments of his own dreams, reassembled into words that pulled at his heart, as if there were a string tied somewhere inside his chest that ran down into the book and attached itself to the characters, drawing him through the pages.”
― Hannah Tinti, The Good Thief
“Is that what you wanted to hear?”

The man reached over, took hold of the lantern and blew it out. Night enveloped the barn. “Well,” he said at last to the darkness between them, “that’s when you know it’s the truth.”
― Hannah Tinti, The Good Thief

One Final Bonus – Hannah Tinti Quote
“It was like looking in a mirror. The same flickering hope in Loo, the same desperate need to be loved, was right here in Marshall’s mother. And it was in Principal Gunderson, clutching Lily’s waist in that old prom photo. And it was Agnes, pressing her feet into the stirrups, listening for her child’s cry. And it was in Hawley, mourning with his scraps of paper in the bathroom. Their hearts were all cycling through the same madness—the discovery, the bliss, the loss, the despair—like planets taking turns in orbit around the sun. Each containing their own unique gravity. Their own force of attraction. Drawing near and holding fast to whatever entered their own atmosphere. Even Loo, penning her thousands of names way out at the edge of the universe, felt better knowing others were traveling this same elliptical course, that they would sometimes cross paths, that they would find love and lose love and recover from love and love again—because, if they were all going in circles, and Loo was Pluto, then every 248 years even she would have the chance to be closer to the sun.”
― Hannah Tinti, The Twelve Lives of Samuel Hawley
