Quotes by William Kittredge (?)

“Don't worry about meaning. If a story's any good, it can't help but have meaning. Let the PhDs tell you what your story means.”

“I had discovered a terrible vulnerability I myself which I think of not as cowardliness but as an ability to imagine too much.”

“We tell stories to talk out the trouble in our lives, trouble otherwise so often so unspeakable. It is one of our main ways of making our lives sensible. Trying to live without stories can make us crazy. They help us recognize what we believe to be most valuable in the world, and help us identify what we hold demonic.”
― William Kittredge, Hole in the Sky: A Memoir
