Faced with so much that is impossible to understand, standing right at the edge of the mortality of everything that we knew and are and may come to be, what else can we do but create, make something, make it with love and clarity. Make it out of desperation that turns into tenderness. Make it out of the deepest part of ourselves, present everywhere and nowhere.
– Margaret Gibson
All great teachers love us. This is essentially what makes them great. I also understand that it is this love that never dies, and that, having once experienced it, we have the confidence always exhibited by well-loved humans, to continue extending this same love.
– Alice Walker
