Animals are less alone with roaring than we are with all these words.

I am rampant with memory.

When I say work I only mean writing. Everything else is just odd jobs.

The dead don't bear a grudge nor seek a blessing. The dead don't rest uneasy. Only the living.

Holidays are enticing only for the first week or so. After that, it is no longer such a novelty to rise late and have little to do.

Women, as well as men, in all ages and in all places, have danced on the earth, danced the life dance, danced joy, danced grief, danced despair, and danced hope. Literally and metaphorically, by their very lives.

Know that although in the eternal scheme of things you are small, you are also unique and irreplaceable, as are all your fellow humans everywhere in the world.
