It was like leading people to the edge of a cliff, showing them the view, and then shoving them off.

For the first time in my life, I felt the pain of missing people I had not yet left.

How wonderful to be read to. To be carried from this world and into another, born away on words.

The heart, once broken, stayed broken.

What is left when there is no love? A rope and rock.

Absolution is not the same as understanding.

City of memories, city of mirrors.

All stories end when they have returned to their beginnings.

What is home but a place where you are truly known?

So, at the last, a story.

Behind every great hatred is a love story.

A woman knows what it means to experience the world as her individual self. That gives her insight into her own reality.

I think being a mother is the cruelest thing in the world.

I have that memory of dancing on my father's feet to all the music my parents used to listen to.

But sometimes living in denial was the only way to keep a man from going on a killing spree.

Hearts starve as well as bodies; give us bread, but give us roses.

Love , creativity, and opportunity is in the air. Take it in and do your thing.

Vengeance has no foresight.

We can see well into the past; we can guess shrewdly into the future, but that which is rolled up and muffled in impenetrable folds is today.

It's tragic when people think feminism is a dirty word.

I like to work with the same people when I can, and you want to get people with the same interests that you have, and the same aesthetic.
