It’s truer to say that we—or, I, at least—had come because we’d been told it was God’s plan, which a lot of the time has nothing to do with what you had in mind for yourself.

“A children's story that can only be enjoyed by children is not a good children's story in the slightest.”

“After all, reading is arguably a far more creative and imaginative process than writing; when the reader creates emotion in their head, or the colors of the sky during the setting sun, or the smell of a warm summer's breeze on their face, they should reserve as much praise for themselves as they do for the writer - perhaps more.”

“Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul
And sings the tune without the words
And never stops at all.”

“nothing which we are to perceive in this world equals
the power of your intense fragility:whose texture
compels me with the colour of its countries,
rendering death and forever with each breathing
(i do not know what it is about you that closes
and opens;only something in me understands
the voice of your eyes is deeper than all roses)
nobody,not even the rain, has such small hands
-excerpt of #35 from "100 Selected Poems”
