“A schedule defends from chaos and whim. A net for catching days.”
― Annie Dillard, The Writing Life

“Like any child, I slid into myself perfectly fitted, as a diver meets her reflection in a pool. Her fingertips enter the fingertips on the water, her wrists slide up her arms. The diver wraps herself in her reflection wholly, sealing it at the toes, and wears it as she climbs rising from the pool, and ever after.”
― Annie Dillard, An American Childhood: A Poignant Memoir About Parents and Passion in 1950s Pittsburgh

“I saw in a blue haze all the world poured flat and pale between the mountains”
― Annie Dillard, Pilgrim at Tinker Creek
