N. Scott Momaday
“We are what we imagine. Our very existence consists in our imagination of ourselves. Our best destiny is to imagine, at least, completely, who and what, and that we are. The greatest tragedy that can befall us is to go unimagined.”
― N. Scott Momaday

“To gain that which is worth having,it may be necessary to lose everything else.”
― Bernadette Devlin, The Price of my Soul

N. Scott Momaday
“In the white man's world, language, too -- and the way which the white man thinks of it--has undergone a process of change. The white man takes such things as words and literatures for granted, as indeed he must, for nothing in his world is so commonplace. On every side of him there are words by the millions, an unending succession of pamphlets and papers, letters and books, bills and bulletins, commentaries and conversations. He has diluted and multiplied the Word, and words have begun to close in on him. He is sated and insensitive; his regard for language -- for the Word itself -- as an instrument of creation has diminished nearly to the point of no return. It may be that he will perish by the Word.”
― N. Scott Momaday, House Made of Dawn

Rabindranath Tagore
“When I go from hence, let this be my parting word, that what I have seen is unsurpassable.”
― Rabindranath Tagore Gitanjali

Bernadette Devlin McAliskey
“Policemen always call me a stupid bitch, and I deny that I'm stupid.”
― Bernadette Devlin McAliskey, The Price of my Soul
