“Of all things lost and gained, the courage to repent might just be the most significant for me”(182).

Quotes about slavery and freedom:
“It wasn’t right for one body to own another or pull strings to make them
jump” (51).
“To distract the beast in my gullet, I tried to read the names of the books on the
shelves without turning my head. My eyes were as starved for words as the rest of me was for dinner” (59).
“Momma said we had to fight the evil inside us by overcoming it with goodness. She said it was a hard thing to do, but it made us worthy” (281).
