Cristina García
“Poetry by its very nature is subversive . . . It turns words inside out, confounds meaning, changes black and white to ambiguous shades of gray. Never trust a poet.”
Cristina Garcia, The Lady Matador's Hotel

Anne Lamott
“Lies cannot nourish or protect you. Only freedom from fear, freedom from lies, can make us beautiful, and keep us safe.”
Anne Lamott, Grace (Eventually): Thoughts on Faith

Cristina García
“It seemed to him that life's true tragedy was to lift up one's voice among the living and be met with indifference.”
Cristina Garcia, Monkey Hunting: A Novel

Linda Hogan
“A woman once described a friend of hers as being such a keen listener that even the trees leaned toward her, as if they were speaking their innermost secrets into her listening ears. Over the years I’ve envisioned that woman’s silence, a hearing full and open enough that the world told her its stories. The green leaves turned toward her, whispering tales of soft breezes and the murmurs of leaf against leaf.”
Linda Hogan, Dwellings: A Spiritual History of the Living World

Naomi Shihab Nye
“maybe we try too hard to be remembered, waking to the glowing yellow disc in ignorance, swearing that today will be the day, today we will make

something of our lives. what if we are so busy searching for worth that we miss the sapphire sky and cackling blackbird. what else is missing?

maybe our steps are too straight and our paths too narrow and not overlapping. maybe when they overlap someone in another country lights a candle, a couple

resolves their argument, a young man puts down his silver gun and walks away.”
Naomi Shihab Nye, Time You Let Me In: 25 Poets under 25
