Cheryl Strayed
“Alone had always felt like an actual place to me, as if it weren't a state of being, but rather a room where I could retreat to be who I really was.”
Cheryl Strayed

Gail Caldwell
“It's taken years for me to understand that dying doesn't end the story; it transforms it. Edits, rewrites, the blur, aand epiphany of one-way dialogue. Most of us wander in and out of one another's lives until not death, but distance, does us part-- time and space and heart's weariness are the blander executioners or human connection.”
Gail Caldwell, Let's Take the Long Way Home: A Memoir of Friendship

Cheryl Strayed
“It had nothing to do with gear or footwear or the backpacking fads or philosophies of any particular era or even with getting from point A to point B.

It had to do with how it felt to be in the wild. With what it was like to walk for miles with no reason other than to witness the accumulation of trees and meadows, mountains and deserts, streams and rocks, rivers and grasses, sunrises and sunsets. The experience was powerful and fundamental. It seemed to me that it had always felt like this to be a human in the wild, and as long as the wild existed it would always feel this way.”
Cheryl Strayed, Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail

Gail Caldwell
“Maybe this is the point: to embrace the core sadness of life without toppling headlong into it, or assuming it will define your days.”
Gail Caldwell, Let's Take the Long Way Home: A Memoir of Friendship

Gail Caldwell
“Hope in the beginning feels like such a violation of the loss, and yet without it we couldn't survive.”
Gail Caldwell, Let's Take the Long Way Home: A Memoir of Friendship
