David Abram
“Magic doesn't sweep you away; it gathers you up into the body of the present moment so thoroughly that all your explanations fall away: the ordinary, in all its plain and simple outrageousness, begins to shine -- to become luminously, impossibly so. Every facet of the world is awake, and you within it.”
David Abram, Becoming Animal: An Earthly Cosmology

Naomi Wolf
“Are women beautiful or aren't we?”
Naomi Wolf, The Beauty Myth

“I bargained with Life for a penny,
and Life would pay no more,
However I begged at evening
When I counted my scanty store;

Life is a just employer.
He gives you what you ask,
But once you have set the wages,
Why, you must bear the task.

I worked for a menial's hire,
Only to learn, dismayed,
That any wage I had asked of Life,
Life would have willingly paid”
Jessie B. Rittenhouse

Terry Tempest Williams
“Can you be inside and outside at the same time?
I think this is where I live.
I think this is where most women live.
I know this is where writers live.
Inside to write. Outside to glean.”
Terry Tempest Williams, When Women Were Birds: Fifty-four Variations on Voice

Virginia Woolf
“As I write, there rises somewhere in my head that queer and very pleasant sense of something which I want to write; my own point of view...”
Virginia Woolf, A Writer's Diary
