Barbara Kingsolver
“Wars and elections are both too big and too small to matter in the long run. The daily work--that goes on, and it adds up. It goes into the ground, into crops, into children's bellies and their bright eyes. Good things don't get lost.”
Barbara Kingsolver, Animal Dreams

Ryan Adams
“Some things were made to be felt”
Ryan Adams, Infinity Blues

“What keeps you going isn't just some fine destination but the road you're on and the fact you know how to drive.”
Barbara Kingsolver, Animal Dreams

“It's one thing to carry your life wherever you go. Another thing to always go looking for it somewhere else.”
Barbara Kingsolver, Animal Dreams

Barbara Kingsolver
“The very least you can do in your life is to figure out what you hope for. And the most you can do is live inside that hope. Not admire it from a distance but live right in it, under its roof. What I want is so simple I almost can’t say it: elementary kindness. Enough to eat, enough to go around. The possibility that kids might one day grow up to be neither the destroyers nor the destroyed. That’s about it. Right now I'm living in that hope, running down its hallway and touching the walls on both sides.”
Barbara Kingsolver, Animal Dreams
