Michael Hainey
“So often I wonder, do all brothers end up at Kitty Hawk? Flipping a coin to write history. One will fly. The other stands slack-jawed with awe. Maybe chasing his brother. The wind in his face now. The wind that lifts his brother.”
Michael Hainey, After Visiting Friends: A Son's Story

Joan Silber
“You don't know what you're going to be faithful to in this world, do you? It was true I didn't have what other people had, I knew that, and yet I couldn't think of a single other life I envied - no, I couldn't - though I knew better than to try to get anyone to believe it.”
Joan Silber, Fools: Stories

Michael Hainey
“It's true that necessity is the mother of invention. But for those of us without fathers, there is a deeper truth - necessity is the mother of self-invention.”
Michael Hainey, After Visiting Friends: A Son's Story

Elizabeth Gilbert
“perfectionism is just fear in fancy shoes and a mink coat,”
Elizabeth Gilbert, Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear

C.S. Lewis
“We are born helpless. As soon as we are fully conscious we discover loneliness. We need others physically, emotionally, intellectually; we need them if we are to know anything, even ourselves.”
C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves
