There's something in life that's a curtain, and I keep trying to raise it.

The way I'm going now is to focus on peace, to create peace. As Sister Corita said, "I don't go to anti-war rallies. I go to peace rallies."

...I've learned exactly who the enemy are. I easily recognize them-business-suited in their modern American executive guise, each boss two feet taller than I am and impossible to meet eye to eye.

Joy and life exist nowhere but the present.

Before we can leave our parents, they stuff our heads like the suitcases which they jam-pack with homemade underwear.

Adultery is extravagance.

When you raise girls, you're raising children for strangers.
