We shouldn't forget that the universe moves with us, is at our back with everything we do.
Natalie GoldbergOne poem or story doesn't matter one way or the other. It's the process of writing and life that matters.
Natalie GoldbergActually, when I look at my old notebooks, I think I have been a bit self-indulgent and have given myself too much time to meander in my discursive thoughts. I could have cut through sooner. Yet it is good to know about our terrible selves, not laud or criticize them, just acknowledge them. Then, out of this knowledge, we are better equipped to make a choice for beauty, kind consideration and clear truth. We make this choice with our feet firmly on the ground. We are not running wildly after beauty with fear at our backs.
