Mary Oliver

Citas

• “To live in this world you must be able to do three things: to love what is mortal; to hold it against your bones knowing your own life depends on it; and, when the time comes to let it go, to let it go.”

• “Every word is a messenger. Some have wings; some are filled with fire; some are filled with death.”

• “I believe in kindness. Also in mischief. Also in singing, especially when singing is not necessarily prescribed.”
