Text Quotes
Caves so often symbolize rebirth. It’s a hidden space, an expected, inscrutable space. Strange things live in there - eyeless salamanders, albino fish, a prophet’s epiphanies (Barbara Hurd Quotes)
In a swamp, as in meditation, you begin to glimpse how elusive, how inherently insubstantial, how fleeting our thoughts are, our identities. There is magic in this moist world, in how the mind lets go, slips into sleepy water, circles and nuzzles the banks of palmetto and wild iris, how it seeps across dreams, smears them into the upright world, rots the wood of treasure chests, welcomes the body home (Barbara Hurd Quotes)
Silence arrests flight, so that in its refuge, the need to flee the chaos of noise diminishes. We let the world creep closer, we drop to our knees, as if to let the heart, like a small animal, get its legs on the ground (Barbara Hurd Quotes)
