Quotes

Daria Darievychhas quoted2 years ago
She just smiled, said that she loved books more than anything, and started telling him excitedly what each of the ones in her lap was about. And Ove realized that he wanted to hear her talking about the things she loved for the rest of his life.
Daria Darievychhas quoted2 years ago
Ove had never been asked how he lived before he met her. But if anyone had asked him, he would have answered that he didn’t.
Daria Darievychhas quoted2 years ago
Because this was what Ove had learned: if one didn’t have anything to say, one had to find something to ask. If there was one thing that made people forget to dislike one, it was when they were given the opportunity to talk about themselves.
