The clock talked loud. I threw it away, it scared me what it talked.

Not everybody feels religion the same way. Some it's in their mouth, but some it's like a hope in their blood, their bones.

Not to have an audience is a kind of death.

Every woman who writes is a survivor.

Writers in a profit making economy are an exploitable commodity whose works are products to be marketed, and are so judged and handled.

That's what I want to be when I grow up, just a peaceful wreck holding hands with other peaceful wrecks.

It's hard for me to talk about the terrible things that have happened in my lifetime because they didn't need to be.
