Adrienne Rich

My heart is moved

My heart is moved by all I cannot save: So much has been destroyed. I have to cast my lot with those who age after age, perversely, with no extraordinary power, reconstitute the world.
~ Adrienne Rich in DREAM OF A COMMON LANGUAGE

Truthfulness, honor

Truthfulness, honor, is not something which springs ablaze of itself, it has to be created between people.
~ Adrienne Rich
