“At that moment there were two feelings inside Celeste's tiny, rapidly beating heart that made her feel as full, and as empty, as a gourd. The sheer beauty of this moment was perfect and sublime. But she was alone.”
Henry Cole, A Nest for Celeste: A Story About Art, Inspiration, and the Meaning of Home

“Maybe that’s what friendship is, Twig thought. Sharing things. The big, and the little.”
Henry Cole, Bayberry Island: An Adventure About Friendship and the Journey Home

“She pondered: Was it worth the feelings of sadness and melancholy to make a friend and then lose him? Would she rather not have the heartache of losing a friend and not have the memory of friendship? No, she decided, no.”
Henry Cole, A Nest for Celeste: A Story About Art, Inspiration, and the Meaning of Home
