Quotes by Lore Segal (?)

“Story has a mind of its own and tells things sometimes it might have preferred us not to know. Stories operate like dreams; both veil what is to be uncovered, neither is capable of the coverup.”

“Are we, all of us, wanting to clean up – to simplify what we leave our children to deal with? I have files of papers that I will never read again but can’t throw out because I would have to read them to know that what I’m throwing out is what I would never read again.”
― Lore Segal, Ladies' Lunch: and Other Stories
