More From Barbara Kingsolver

Memory is corrupted and ruined by a crowd of memories. if i am going to have a true memory, there are a thousand things that must first be forgotten. memory is not fully itself when it reaches only into the past. a memory that is not alive to the present does not remember the here and now, does not remember its true identity, is not memory at all. he who remembers nothing but facts and past events, and is never brought back into the present, is a victim of amnesia.
Memories Past True Identity
I have a good memory. but i would be interested in memory even if i had a bad memory, because i believe that memory is our soul. if we lose our memory completely, we are without a soul.
Memories Believe Soul
Success is not built on success. it's built on failure. it's built on frustration. sometimes its built on catastrophe.

Being a victim doesn't take much. there are built-in excuses for failure. built-in excuses for being miserable. built-in excuses for being angry all the time. no reason to trying to be happy; it's not possible. you're a victim. victim of what? well, you're a victim of derision. well, you're a victim of america. you're a victim of america's past, or you're a victim of religion. you're a victim of bigotry, of homophobia, whatever. you're a victim of something. the democrats got one for you. if you want to be a victim, call 'em up.

I think there's a growing amount of confusion about what conservatism is. and it is time for us to understand that conservatism is not built on personalities. conservatism is not simply built on how angry you might seem from time to time. conservatism is built on a set of principles and ideas that our nation desperately needs.
Thinking Confusion Personality
Own only what you can always carry with you: know languages, know countries, know people. let your memory be your travel bag. use your memory! use your memory! it is those bitter seeds alone which might sprout and grow someday. look around you - there are people around you. maybe you will remember one of them all your life and later eat your heart out because you didn't make use of the opportunity to ask him questions. and the less you talk, the more you'll hear.

Come home to the affirmation that we have a dream. come home to the conviction that we can move our country forward. come home to the belief that we can seek a newer world. and let us be joyful in the homecoming.

At the first meeting i had with the (italian) bishops in may 2013, one of the three things i said was: with the italian government you're on your own. because the pope is for everybody and he can't insert himself in the specific internal politics of a country. this is not the role of the pope, right?

The reason why i'm popular as an artist in this country is because it suits the psyche of the nation at this time. ten years ago, my work wouldn't have had any currency, any popularity at all. before in this country, you had to be accepted. you had to be part of the group. now it's probably more trendy to have a problem.
