Let us go forth with fear and courage and rage to save the world.
From Grace Paley
In the end, long life is the reward, strength, and beauty.
Sometimes, walking with a friend, I forget the world.
I see women as oppressed, but I don't see them as victims; I see them rising all the time. I see them as very strong.
'The Immigrant Story,' which took me about twenty-five years to write, was a very simple story, but I couldn't think of how to tell it. Then twenty years after I started it, I found this one page and realized it was going to be the story. That's the only way you get it sometimes.
I often see through things right to the apparition itself.
You have to really understand how people speak, and you have to reconstruct it... Most pleasure in writing, you know, is in inventing.
Whatever you do, life don't stop. It only sits a minute and dreams a dream.
The word career is a divisive word. It's a word that divides the normal life from business or professional life.
I was a fantastic student until ten, and then my mind began to wander.
