“I think the purest of souls, those with the most fragile of hearts, must be meant for a short life. They can't be tethered or held in your palm.

Just like a sparrow, they light on your porch. Their song might be brief, but how greedy would we be to ask for more? No, you cannot keep a sparrow. You can only hope that as they fly away, they take a little bit of you with them.”
Emm Cole, The Short Life of Sparrows

“it is a serious thing // just to be alive / on this fresh morning / in this broken world.”
Mary Oliver, Red Bird

“He is exactly the poem I wanted to write.”
Mary Oliver White Heron Rises Over Blackwater

“How well can we really know another person? People can be in your lives for years –– they can fill your lives. But all you really know of them are the stories they tell you. And then they die. They always leave a mystery behind.”
Danielle Ganek, The Summer We Read Gatsby

Virginia Woolf
“Oh, I am in love with life!”
Virginia Woolf, The Waves
