Certainly! Here are some notable quotes from Danielle Trussoni’s novel, The Puzzle Master:
- “There is a story from the midrash that I’ve always loved,” she said. “It’s about Lailah, the angel of conception. Lailah, the story goes, bequeaths babies the totality of knowledge in the womb.”
- “When all the horrors of life have revealed themselves, it is beauty that God sends to comfort us.”
- “In girum imus nocte et consumimur igni.”
- “Palindromes, one-letter shift ciphers, even a Greek decryption device called the scytale—all of these were used to hide the true nature of God’s sacred being.”
- “Sometimes a secret remains out of reach for a reason.”
- “Security is existential. It encompasses all elements of a man’s being: physical, intellectual, spiritual, financial.”
These excerpts reflect the novel’s intricate exploration of themes such as knowledge, beauty, secrecy, and the divine.
