“The Secret Life of Bees” by Sue Monk Kidd

There's nothing like a song about lost love to remind you how everything precious can slip from the hinges where you've hung it so careful.

—Sue Monk Kidd in The Secret Life of Bees

When it's time to die, go ahead and die, and when it's time to live, live. Don't sort-of-maybe live, but live like you're going all out, like you're not afraid.

—Sue Monk Kidd in The Secret Life of Bees
