"A genuine essay has no educational, polemical, or sociopolitical use; it is the movement of a free mind at play"
€I think it is agreed by all parties that this prodigious number of children in the arms, or on the backs, or at the heels of their mothers, and frequently of their fathers, is in the present deplorable state of the kingdom a very great additional grievance; and therefore whoever could find out a fair, cheap, and easy method of making these children sound, useful members of the commonwealth would deserve so well of the public as to have his statue set up for a preserver of the nation”
€It is in free time that the special player develops, not in the competitive experience of games, in hour-long practices once a week, in mechanical devotion to packaged, processed, coaching-manual, hockey school skills”
€In giving me these gifts, my mother had done a number of astonishing things, in her typically offhand way. She had taught me a lesson about letting go of possessions -- easily, without emphasis or regret __ and she had given me a symbol of what she herself represented in my life.”
€Real dislocation, the loss of all familiar external and internal parameters, is not glamorous or cool. It is an upheaval in the deep material of the self”
"Writing, for me, has to be set firmly in some soil…. As cultural background" "My writing then has been my own attempt tot come to terms with my past"
"This article is about hearing a story from us that is written by us, not as though we were you but as though you were us." “I write because I want our youth to know that we have value, we have knowledge, and we have a place in this world."
€On any given day, questions of unusual and frequently surreal nature are posed to me and the other intelligent thought often puzzled, members of the office. The number of times I’ve seen heads with telephones attached, shaking in amazement makes me wonder about the logical process of people's minds.”
€O yes, he seemed to say, death is stronger than I am.”
€It made me sad to see how he turned his back on the flood, sadder still to see in his forsaking the foreshadowing of how I will one day do the same’
