“The actual house not of beams and nails but of existence itself— is all of earth, with no door, no address separate from oceans or stars, or from pleasure or wretchedness either, or hope, or weakness, or
reed. How wonderful that the universe is beautiful in so many places and in so many ways.”
Mary Oliver, Upstream: Selected Essays

Caleb Azumah Nelson
“The two of you, like headphone wires tangling, caught up in this something. A happy accident. A messy miracle.”
Caleb Azumah Nelson, Open Water

Amanda Peters
“In the summer, if I was up early, I liked to walk into the lake naked and lie on top of the water. I liked to watch the mist evaporate above me, my ears immersed so I could listen to the quiet hum of nature under water.”
Amanda Peters, The Berry Pickers

Waubgeshig Rice
“Evan rolled over, away from her. The light of dawn had yet to creep in through the cracks in the curtain. Sleep was still thick in the room.”
Waubgeshig Rice, Moon of the Crusted Snow

Annie Dillard
“Later I lay open-mouthed in bed, my arms flung wide at my sides to steady the whirling darkness. At this latitude I’m spinning 836 miles an hour round the earth’s axis; I often fancy I feel my sweeping fall as a breakneck arc like the dive of dolphins, and the hollow rushing of wind raises hair on my neck and the side of my face. In orbit around the sun I’m moving 64,800 miles an hour. The solar system as a whole, like a merry-go-round unhinged, spins, bobs, and blinks at the speed of 43,200 miles an hour along a course set east of Hercules.”
Annie Dillard, Pilgrim at Tinker Creek
