Roy T. Bennett
“Acts of Kindness:
A random act of kindness, no matter how small, can make a tremendous impact on someone else's life.”
Roy T. Bennett, The Light in the Heart

Robin Wall Kimmerer
“Even a wounded world is feeding us. Even a wounded world holds us, giving us moments of wonder and joy. I choose joy over despair. Not because I have my head in the sand, but because joy is what the earth gives me daily and I must return the gift.”
Robin Wall Kimmerer, Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge, and the Teachings of Plants

“The more people open their hearts to us, the less we will have to fight for our rights.”
Harvey Milk

Nikki Giovanni
“Allowables

I killed a spider
Not a murderous brown recluse
Nor even a black widow
And if the truth were told this
Was only a small spider
Sort of papery spider
Who should have run
When I picked up the book
But she didn't
And she scared me
And I smashed her

I don't think
I'm allowed

To kill something

Because I am

Frightened.”
Nikki Giovanni, Chasing Utopia: A Hybrid

Max Porter
“[Grief] is everything. It is the fabric of selfhood, and beautifully chaotic. It shares mathematical characteristics with many natural forms.”
Max Porter, Grief Is the Thing with Feathers
