She always found happiness in the simple things. Coffee on a cold winter morning. The smell of fresh roses. The light of a candle. The smile of a stranger. A genuine compliment. For her, these things were pure magic.

Strawberry Hill House—a Gothic Revival villa that was built in Twickenham, London 1749
“EVERY year, the bright Scandinavian summer nights fade away without anyone’s noticing. One evening in August you have an errand outdoors, and all of a sudden it’s pitch-black. A great warm, dark silence surrounds the house. It is still summer, but the summer is no longer alive. It has come to a standstill; nothing withers, and fall is not ready to begin. There are no stars yet, just darkness. The can of kerosene is brought up from the cellar and left in the hall, and the flashlight is hung up on its peg beside the door.”
— Tove Jansson, The Summer Book, tr. by Thomas Teal (Sort Of Books, 2003)
