“We are so rarely left alone to love what we want to love, I say. Happiness comes from accepting the world the way it is. I've worked against this notion my whole life.”
Heidi Sopinka, The Dictionary of Animal Languages

“I feel joy and sorrow at once. Thinking for the first time how a work of art contains the unknown thoughts of the artist, and how everyone looking at this world will never know what was in him when this was made. Even me.”
Heidi Sopinka, The Dictionary of Animal Languages

“You cannot understand stillness when you have the full range of motion. We are all just bodies when it comes down to it. Though when you grow old, you are edged out of even that. How little you are able to inhabit it. You notice that pleasures always involve verbs.”
Heidi Sopinka, The Dictionary of Animal Languages

“Routine lures you, it makes you feel your own identity. Though I often think the opposite. That in repetition, you can lose sight of yourself.”
Heidi Sopinka, The Dictionary of Animal Languages

“I've never understood why everyone know know that women are the ones who convey things in the most interesting ways, I say. We have always observed. We have been used to no audience and that has given us room to really see.”
Heidi Sopinka, The Dictionary of Animal Languages
