I love words very much. i've always loved to talk, and i've always love words — the words that rest in your mouth, what words mean and how you taste them and so on. and for me the spoken word can be used almost as a gesture.

More From Martha Graham

If the lost word is lost, if the spent word is spent if the unheard, unspoken word is unspoken, unheard; still is the spoken word, the word unheard, the word without a word, the word within the world and for the world; and the light shone in the darkness and against the word the unstilled world still whirled about the center of the silent word. oh my people, what have i done unto thee. where shall the word be found, where shall the word resound? not here, there is not enough silence

Taste governs every free - as opposed to rote - human response. nothing is more decisive. there is taste in people, visual taste, taste in emotion - and there is taste in acts, taste in morality. intelligence, as well, is really a kind of taste: taste in ideas.
Ideas People Taste
The discovery of the good taste of bad taste can be very liberating. the man who insists on high and serious pleasures is depriving himself of pleasure; he continually restricts what he can enjoy; in the constant exercise of his good taste he will eventually price himself out of the market, so to speak. here camp taste supervenes upon good taste as a daring and witty hedonism. it makes the man of good taste cheerful, where before he ran the risk of being chronically frustrated. it is good for the digestion.

In the nineteenth year and the eleventh month speak your tattered kaddish for all suicides: praise to life though it crumbled in like a tunnel on ones we knew and loved praise to life though its windows blew shut on the breathing-room of ones we knew and loved praise to life though ones we knew and loved loved it badly, too well, and not enough praise to life though it tightened like a knot on the hearts of ones we thought we knew loved us praise to life giving room and reason to ones we knew and loved who felt unpraisable. praise to them, how they loved it, when they could.

If you would be well spoken of, learn to be well-spoken; and having learnt to be well- spoken, strive also to be well-doing; so shall you succeed in being well spoken of.

You can talk about things indirectly, but if you want to talk how people really talk, you have to talk r-rated. i mean i've got three incredibly intelligent daughters, but when you get mad, you get mad and you talk like people talk. when a normal 17-year-old girl storms out of the house or 15-year-old boy is mad at his mom or dad, they're not talking the way people talk on tv. unless it's cable.

Guys think of love as a feeling, which means that if you do something wrong you can still love somebody. so guys are constantly screwing up and then saying, "but i love you!" and girls have a different standard for love.
Girl Love You Mean
I wish people wouldn't just see me as the asian girl who beats everyone up, or the asian girl with no emotion. people see julia roberts or sandra bullock in a romantic comedy, but not me. you add raceto it, and it became, 'well, she's too asian', or, ‘she's too american’. i kind of got pushed out of both categories. it's a very strange place to be. you're not asian enough and then you're not american enough, so it gets really frustrating.

Up until i was 12 my sisters used to dress me up as a girl and introduce me as 'claudia'! twelve was a real turning point for me as i moved to a mixed school, and then i became cool and discovered hair gel.
