“No writing is wasted. Did you know that sourdough from San Francisco is leavened partly by a bacteria called lactobacillus sanfrancisensis? It is native to the soil there, and does not do well elsewhere. But any kitchen can become an ecosystem. If you bake a lot, your kitchen will become a happy home to wild yeasts, and all your bread will taste better. Even a failed loaf is not wasted. Likewise, cheese makers wash the dairy floor with whey. Tomato gardeners compost with rotten tomatoes. No writing is wasted: the words you can't put in your book can wash the floor, live in the soil, lurk around in the air. They will make the next words better.”

“Love doesn’t come with a guarantee of time, daughter. We never know if it will last. We can strengthen the odds by working at it. But that’s all we can do. In fact, love only promises one thing. While it lives in your heart, it will multiply tenfold, and fill you with more joy than you ever could have imagined.”
