Text Quotes
There is a place where the human enters dream and myth, and becomes a part of it, or maybe it is the other way around when the story grows from the body and spirit of humankind. In any case, we are a story, each of us, a bundle of stories, some as false as phantom islands but believed in nevertheless. Some might be true  (Linda Hogan Quotes) Death is dancing me ragged  (Linda Hogan Quotes) There is a geography of the human spirit, common to all peoples  (Linda Hogan Quotes) We are full of bread and gas, getting fat on the outside while inside we grow thin  (Linda Hogan Quotes) Between earth and earth’s atmosphere, the amount of water remains constant; there is never a drop more, never a drop less. This is a story of circular infinity, of a planet birthing itself.  (Linda Hogan Quotes) Poetry is a string of words that parades without a permit  (Linda Hogan Quotes) We make art out of our loss  (Linda Hogan Quotes) There is a language beyond human language, an elemental language, one that arises from the land itself  (Linda Hogan Quotes) There is a still place, a gap between the worlds, spoken by the tribal knowings of thousands of years. In it are silent flyings that stand aside from human struggles and the designs of our own makings. At times, when we are silent enough, still enough, we take a step into such mystery, the place of spirit, and mystery, we must remember, by its very nature does not wish to be known  (Linda Hogan Quotes) Telling about our lives is important for those who come after as, for those who will see our experience as part of their own historical struggle  (Linda Hogan Quotes) It is a paradox in the contemporary world that in our desire for peace we must willingly give ourselves to struggle  (Linda Hogan Quotes) There is a way that nature speaks, that land speaks. Most of the time we are simply not patient enough, quiet enough, to pay attention to the story  (Linda Hogan Quotes) A spoken story is larger than one unheard, unsaid. In nearly all creation accounts, words or songs are how the world was created, the animals sung into existence  (Linda Hogan Quotes) Let’s kneel down through all the worlds of the body like lovers. I know I am a tree and full of life and I know you, you are the flying one and will leave. But can’t we swallow the sweetness and can’t you sing in my arms and sleep in the human light of the sun and moon I have been drinking alone  (Linda Hogan Quotes) Between earth and earth’s atmosphere, the amount of water remains constant; there is never a drop more, never a drop less. This is a story of circular infinity, of a planet birthing itself  (Linda Hogan Quotes) Walking. I am listening to a deeper way. Suddenly all my ancestors are behind me. Be still, they say. Watch and listen. You are the result of the love of thousands  (Linda Hogan Quotes) The crocodile doesn’t harm the bird that cleans his teeth for him. He eats the others but not that one  (Linda Hogan Quotes) Poetry has its own laws speaking for the life of the planet. It is a language that wants to bring back together what the other words have torn apart  (Linda Hogan Quotes) Sometimes there is a wellspring or river of something beautiful and possible in the tenderest sense that comes to and from the most broken of children, and I was one of these, and whatever is was, I can’t name, I can only thank. Perhaps it is the water of life that saves us, after all  (Linda Hogan Quotes) Some people see scars, and it is wounding they remember. To me they are proof of the fact that there is healing  (Linda Hogan Quotes) There are ways in, journeys to the center of life, through time; through air, matter, dream and thought. The ways are not always mapped or charted, but sometimes being lost, if there is such a thing, is the sweetest place to be. And always, in this search, a person might find that she is already there, at the center of the world. It may be a broken world, but it is glorious nonetheless  (Linda Hogan Quotes) Tears have a purpose. they are what we carry of the ocean, and perhaps we must become the sea, give ourselves to it, if we are to be transformed  (Linda Hogan Quotes)
