Text Quotes
Nothing to do with nature, unless you count human nature  (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes) The wrong words are impossible when there are no words  (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes) Eaters must understand, how we eat determines how the world is used  (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes) The reason most people have kids is because they get pregnant  (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes) I grew up aware of all the people I depended on and who depended on me  (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes) But children robbed of love will dwell on magic  (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes) Gilbert has established herself as a straight-up storyteller who dares us into adventures of worldly discovery, and this novel stands as a winning next act. THE SIGNATURE OF ALL THINGS is a bracing homage to the many natures of genius and the inevitable progress of ideas, in a world that reveals its best truths to the uncommonly patient minds  (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes) A woman without a man -- a condition of ‘manlessness’ -- is defined as alone. But a single mother is less alone than the average housewife  (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes) Empathy is really the opposite of spiritual meanness. It's the capacity to understand that every war is both won and lost.

I can’t begin to understand the question. For me, the discipline is turning off the computer and leaving my desk to do something else  (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes) Close the door. Write with no one looking over your shoulder. Don’t try to figure out what other people want to hear from you; figure out what you have to say. It’s the one and only thing you have to offer  (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes) Value is not made of money, but a tender balance of expectation and longing  (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes) In a world as wrong as this one, all we can do is make things as right as we can  (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes) Last time I talked to her she didn’t sound like herself. She’s depressed. It’s awful what happens when people run out of money. They start thinking they’re no good  (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes) No reporter worth his buttons will let the facts intrude on a good story  (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes) It’s frightening when things you love appear suddenly changed from what you have always known  (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes) She kept swimming out into life because she hadn’t yet found a rock to stand on  (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes) Many of us who aren’t farmers or gardeners still have some element of farm nostalgia in our family past, real or imagined: a secret longing for some connection to a life where a rooster crows in the yard  (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes) The thing is, it’s my own fault.

I bet it says that in the dictionary  (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes) The most important part of a story is the piece of it you don’t know  (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes) Science doesn’t tell us what we should do. It only tells us what is  (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes)
