Surrender Dorothy

“My dreams are going through their death flurries. I thought they were all safely buried, but sometimes they stir in their grave, making my heartstrings twinge. I mean no particular dream, you understand, but the whole radiant flock of them together—with their rainbow wings, iridescent, bright, soaring, glorious, sublime. They are dying before the steel javelins and arrows of a world of Time and Money.”
― Barbara Newhall Follett

“She taught me everything I knew about crawfish and kissing and pink wine and poetry. She made me different.”
― John Green

“Sometimes she wore Levi's with white-suede fringe sewn down the legs and a feathered Indian headdress, sometimes old fifties' taffeta dresses covered with poetry written in glitter, or dresses made of kids' sheets printed with pink piglets or Disney characters.”
― Francesca Lia Block, Weetzie Bat

“All good things are wild and free.”
― Henry David Thoreau
