Zora Neale Hurston
“If you kin see de light at daybreak, you don't keer if you die at dusk. It's so many people never seen de light at all.”
Zora Neale Hurston, Their Eyes Were Watching God

J.M. Barrie
“Dreams do come true, if only we wish hard enough. You can have anything in life if you will sacrifice everything else for it.”
J.M. Barrie, Peter Pan

Sherman Alexie
“My school and my tribe are so poor and sad that we have to study from the same dang books our parents studied from. That is absolutely the saddest thing in the world.”
Sherman Alexie, The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian

Barbara Kingsolver
“The power is in the balance: we are our injuries, as much as we are our successes.”
Barbara Kingsolver, The Poisonwood Bible

Sherman Alexie
“I draw because words are too unpredictable.
I draw because words are too limited.
If you speak and write in English, or Spanish, or Chinese, or any other language, then only a certain percentage of human beings will get your meaning.
But when you draw a picture everybody can understand it.
If I draw a cartoon of a flower, then every man, woman, and child in the world can look at it and say, "That's a flower.”
Sherman Alexie, The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian
