"It can be really exasperating to look back at your past. What’s the matter with you? I want to ask her, my younger self, shaking her shoulder. If I did that, she would probably cry. Maybe I would cry, too." Sep 23, 2025 11:56AM

Pat Conroy
“Teach them the quiet verbs of kindness, to live beyond themselves. Urge them toward excellence, drive them toward gentleness, pull them deep into yourself, pull them upward toward manhood, but softly like an angel arranging clouds. Let your spirit move through them softly.”
Pat Conroy, The Prince of Tides

Carrie Fisher
“Stay afraid, but do it anyway. What’s important is the action. You don’t have to wait to be confident. Just do it and eventually the confidence will follow.”
Carrie Fisher

Patti Smith
“How is it that we never completely comprehend our love for someone until they’re gone?”
Patti Smith, M Train: A Memoir

Jesmyn Ward
“Replace ropes with bullets. Hound dogs with German shepherds. A gray uniform with a bulletproof vest. Nothing is new.”
Jesmyn Ward, The Fire This Time: A New Generation Speaks About Race

“My main skills are talking and cooking biscuits,' Augustus said. 'And getting drunk on the porch.”
Larry McMurtry, Lonesome Dove
