Diane Ackerman
“We can't enchant the world, which makes its own magic; but we can enchant ourselves by paying deep attention”
Diane Ackerman, An Alchemy of Mind: The Marvel and Mystery of the Brain

C.S. Lewis
“Some day you will be old enough to start reading fairy tales again.”
C.S. Lewis

Vladimir Nabokov
“Our imagination flies -- we are its shadow on the earth.”
Vladimir Nabokov

Diane Ackerman
“Fear is danger to your body, but disgust is danger to your soul.”
Diane Ackerman, A Slender Thread

Diane Ackerman
“When I go biking, I repeat a mantra of the day's sensations: bright sun, blue sky, warm breeze, blue jay's call, ice melting and so on. This helps me transcend the traffic, ignore the clamorings of work, leave all the mind theaters behind and focus on nature instead. I still must abide by the rules of the road, of biking, of gravity. But I am mentally far away from civilization. The world is breaking someone else's heart. ”
Diane Ackerman
