“Längtan efter det som har gått förlorat river upp ett sår i mig. Varför tillbringar jag så stor del av livet med att längta efter någon annat? Varför är jag inte tacksam över allt som har inträffat mig? Varför vaknar jag missnöjd och går och lägger mig olycklig? Varför hindrar jag mig själv från att leva?
Spelar det ens någon roll, längre? Det som en gång var min framtid ligger obönhörligen bakom mig.”
― Snöstorm

“Katolska kyrkor är fyllda av bilder på människor som är heliga; helgonen bär ofta med sig något slags redskap. Om det är något som ser ut som en grill så är det för att helgonet blev torterat till döds genom att brännas levande. Det har alltid ansetts vackert av katoliker att hellre dö en plågsam död än att ändra åsikt. Den katoliker som till äventyrs inte hade någon plågoande, kunde själv plåga sig, till exempel genom att piska sig. Påven Clemens VI förbjöd självpiskandet 1349, men min mamma betraktade allt som hänt i katolska kyrkan efter 1300 som nymodigt trams. För henne var det självklart att man kunde visa sin kärlek till Gud genom att göra illa sig själv. Jag var för ung för att fråga henne hur det kunde komma sig att man fick piska Guds tempel, men var förbjuden att smeka det.”

“I should like to bury something precious in every place where I've been happy and then, when I'm old and ugly and miserable, I could come back and dig it up and remember.”

“We read books to find out who we are. What other people, real or imaginary, do and think and feel... is an essential guide to our understanding of what we ourselves are and may become.”

“A writer is a person who cares what words mean, what they say, how they say it. Writers know words are their way towards truth and freedom, and so they use them with care, with thought, with fear, with delight. By using words well they strengthen their souls. Story-tellers and poets spend their lives learning that skill and art of using words well. And their words make the souls of their readers stronger, brighter, deeper.”

“Please bring strange things.
Please come bringing new things.
Let very old things come into your hands.
Let what you do not know come into your eyes.
Let desert sand harden your feet.
Let the arch of your feet be the mountains.
Let the paths of your fingertips be your maps
And the ways you go be the lines of your palms.
Let there be deep snow in your inbreathing
And your outbreath be the shining of ice.
May your mouth contain the shapes of strange words.
May you smell food cooking you have not eaten.
May the spring of a foreign river be your navel.
May your soul be at home where there are no houses.
Walk carefully, well-loved one,
Walk mindfully, well-loved one,
Walk fearlessly, well-loved one.
Return with us, return to us,
Be always coming home.”
