More From E. L. Konigsburg

From woman, man is born; within woman, man is conceived; to woman he is engaged and married. woman becomes his friend; through woman, the future generations come. when his woman dies, he seeks another woman; to woman he is bound. so why call her bad? from her, kings are born. from woman, woman is born; without woman, there would be no one at all.

We are born of woman, we are conceived in the womb of woman, we are engaged and married to woman. we make friendship with woman and the lineage continued because of woman. when one woman dies, we take another one, we are bound with the world through woman. why should we talk ill of her, who gives birth to kings? the woman is born from woman; there is none without her. only the one true lord is without woman

Another thing about creation is that every day it is like it gave birth, and it's always kind of an innocent and refreshing. so it's always virginal to me, and it's always a surprise. ... each piece seems to have a life of its own. every little piece or every big piece that i make becomes a very living thing to me, very living. i could make a million pieces; the next piece gives me a whole new thing. it is a new center. life is total at that particular time. and that's why it's right. that reaffirms my life.
