Anne Sexton
“Somebody sees me, and I see myself through them. Then it’s all gone, the whole world falls apart.”
Anne Sexton

Studs Terkel
“The whole program of unemployment insurance, Social Security, was a confession of the failure of our whole social order. And confession of failure of Christian principles: that man, in fact, did not look after his brother.”
Studs Terkel, Hard Times: An Oral History of the Great Depression

William Paul Young
“There is something joyful about storms that interrupt routine... One can almost hear a unified sigh rise from the nearby city and surrounding countryside where Nature has intervened to give respite to the weary humans slogging it out within her purview. All those affected this way are united by a mutual excuse, and the heart is suddenly and unexpectedly a little giddy.”
W. Paul Young, The Shack

Studs Terkel
“What I remember most of those times is that poverty creates desperation, and desperation creates violence.”
Studs Terkel, Hard Times: An Oral History of the Great Depression

Eula Biss
“But for now I prefer to think that I will go somewhere that is not so overimagined.”
Eula Biss, Notes from No Man's Land
