"Because we don't really sparkle."
John G. Hartness
"So strange that David Drucker of all people was the only one who said the exact right thing: Your dad shouldn't have died. That's really unfair."
Julie Buxbaum
"I want to yell so loud that Baby Girl can hear me that dirty ain't a color, disease ain't the Negro side a town. I want to stop that moment from coming - and it come in ever white child's life - when they start to think that colored folks ain't as good as whites. ... I pray that wasn't her moment, Pray I still got time."
Kathryn Stockett
"There are lots of different ways grown-ups disappear. It's lonely being the one left behind."

"There is a saying that when someone is struck down without warning that he 'didn't know what hit him.' It's a bit of a copout, providing the excuse that what happened wasn't the individual's fault at all.

"A poem is a place where the conditions of beyondness and withinness are made palpable, where to imagine is to feel what it is like to be. It allows us to have the life we are denied because we are too busy living. Even more paradoxically, a poem permits us to live in ourselves as if we were just out of reach of ourselves."
Mark Strand
"We are so confused till a state that we do not know where we are standing ..."
K. Al Balushi
"Everything that makes the world like it is now will be gone. We'll have new rules and new ways of living. Maybe there'll be a law not to live in houses, so then no one can hide from anyone else, you see."
Shirley Jackson
"We have a very precise image - an image at times shameless - of what we have lost, but we are ignorant of what may follow or replace it."
Jorge Luis Borges
"Earlier you feel being ordinary, chances are that you grow up into someone special; a late realisation though is heart-wrenching."
Sandeep Sahajpal
"Life on Earth is not the result of a series of miracles performed by a supernatural god-creator, and it is definitely not a product of matter having a mind of its own, of an equally miraculous evolutionary process supervised by Lady Natural Selection who would turn rabbits into lions."
