Julio CortazarPeople vote against their own interests that all the time. But when you do the polling in the U.S., it has gone from less than 50 percent who thought climate change was real to 70-odd percent. And if you listen to the Republicans in Congress, they used to say, "Oh, climate change doesn't exist."

What are you talking about? We just had a flood. We haven't had rain in a long time." They can't get away from it.

Denise LevertovI have long suspected that the power of speech is not a power at all, but a mere form of hysteria from which the living that really know the truth never suffer because they do not fear life or death as we do and can afford to be calm and silent.

Therefore these little ones make no such tragedy as we do of death.

Along with the image, memory carried these words from a child's mind through time: I am blessed. In this life I am truly blessed.

He collapses onto his knees in front of Razor before the whole scene disappears again.
Marie LuThe secret is,โ I say, whispering right into his ear, โthat yours was the best kiss Iโve ever had in my life.โ โBut Iโve never kissed you,โ he whispers back. Around us the rain sounds like falling glass. โNot since third grade, anyway.โ I smile, but Iโm not sure if he can see it. โBetter get started, then,โ I say, โbecause I donโt have much time.
