Virginia woolf wrote, "across the broad continent of a woman's life falls the shadow of a sword." on one side of that sword, she said, there lies convention and tradition and order, where all is correct. but on the other side of that sword, if you're crazy enough to cross it and choose a life that does not follow convention, "all is confusion." nothing follows a regular course. her argument was that the crossing of the shadow of that sword may bring a more interesting existence to a woman, but you can bet it will be more perilous.

You named your sword fire? fire? what kind of a boring name is that? you might as well name your sword 'blazing blade' and be done with it. fire indeed. humph. wouldn't you rather have a sword called sheepbiter or chrysanthemum cleaver or something else with imagination?

We have become too civilized to grasp the obvious. for the truth is very simple. to survive you often have to fight, and to fight you have to dirty yourself. war is evil, and it is often the lesser evil. those who take the sword perish by the sword, and those who don't take the sword perish by smelly diseases.

All men and women are born, live, suffer and die; what distinguishes us one from another is our dreams, whether they be dreams about worldly or unworldly things, and what we do to make them come about... we do not choose to be born. we do not choose our parents. we do not choose our historical epoch, the country of our birth, or the immediate circumstances of our upbringing. we do not, most of us, choose to die; nor do we choose the time and conditions of our death. but within this realm of choicelessness, we do choose how we live.

This i choose to do. if there is a price, this i choose to pay. if it is my death, then i choose to die. where this takes me, there i choose to go. i choose. this i choose to do.

No, my dear, i'm not in love with you, no more than you are with me, and if i were, you would be the last person i'd ever tell. god help the man who ever really loves you. you'd break his heart, my darling, cruel, destructive little cat who is so careless and confident she doesn't even trouble to sheathe her claws.

You don't suffer, kill yourself and take the risks i take just for money. i love bike racing.

We need to learn to love ourselves first, in all our glory and our imperfections. if we cannot love ourselves, we cannot fully open to our ability to love others or our potential to create

If you deny the reality of your body or your life, you'll never be able to dress any of it well - even the parts you love. you have to see it all to work with any of it.

All she saw, down in the cellar well beneath the stoop, was a light yellow feather with a tip of green. and she had never named him. had called him "my parrot" all these years. "my parrot." "love you. "love you." did the dogs get him? or did he get the message - that she said, "my parrot" and he said, "love you," and she had never said it back or even taken the trouble to name him - and manage somehow to fly away on wings that had not soared for six years.
