Quotes by May Sinclair

“Yesterday I was only Elizabeth; To-day I am a wonder to myself and a strange glory, I am the woman that he loves... I should not be more unlike the live woman he sees, Than is my image in the glass; There is no glass that can show me My likeness in his mind. Yet, because I am beautiful to him, I have become beautiful to myself; I love the white face he praised, And the mouth he kissed; I am a wonder to myself, And a strange glory.”

“She knew that something wonderful and beautiful was going to happen. It had happened; it was happening now... If nothing changed, if this minute that she was living now prolonged itself, if it went on for ever and ever, that would be happiness enough.”
