“The heads of strong old age are beautiful / Beyond all grace of youth”
Robinson Jeffers

bell hooks
“Young girls often feel strong, courageous, highly creative, and powerful until they begin to receive undermining sexist messages that encourage them to conform to conventional notions of femininity. To conform they have to give up power.”
bell hooks, Communion: The Female Search for Love

William Stafford
“Yes

It could happen any time, tornado,
earthquake, Armageddon. It could happen.
Or sunshine, love, salvation.

It could, you know. That's why we wake
and look out - no guarantees
in this life.

But some bonuses, like morning,
like right now, like noon,
like evening.”
William Stafford

William Stafford
“We were traveling between a mountain and Thursday,
Holding pages back on the calendar,
Remembering every turn in the roadway:
We hold that sky, we said, and remember.
So magic a time it was that I was both brave and afraid.
Some day like this might save the world.”
William Stafford

“Hope is the heaviest weight a man can carry. It is the bane of the idealist.”
