Elizabeth BishopThe way I look at love is you have to follow it, and fall hard, if you fall hard. You have to forget about what everyone else thinks. It has to be an us-against-the-world mentality.

I have rules for a lot of areas of my life. Love is not going to be one of them.

Should we only fall silent in revulsion, shame and guilt? To what purpose?

It is a tedious job to build them up again; they never quite shine. And the child's world is never quite whole again. It is an aching kind of growing.

But bridges are, always, always.

Jiddu KrishnamurtiThere were no men in this painting, but it was about men, the kind who caused women to fall. I did not ascribe any intentions to these men. They were like the weather, they didn't have a mind. They merely drenched you or struck you like lightning and moved on, mindless as blizzards. Or they were like rocks, a line of sharp slippery rocks with jagged edges. You could walk with care along between the rocks, picking your steps, and if you slipped you'd fall and cut yourself, but it was no use blaming the rocks.

When you force somebody to surrender, it is hate, destruction, it is not love.

Like a Jew just released from Dachau, I watch the handsome young Nazi soldier fall writhing to the ground with a bullet in his stomach and I look briefly and walk on. I donโt even need to shrug. I simply donโt care. What he was, as a person, I mean, what his shames and yearnings were, simply donโt matter.
