BARBARA KINGSOLVER, The Poisonwood Bible
We're animals. We're born like every other mammal and we live our whole lives around disguised animal thoughts.
BARBARA KINGSOLVER, Mammals
At some point in my life I'd honestly hoped love would rescue me from the cold, drafty castle I lived in. But at another point, much earlier I think, I'd quietly begun to hope for nothing at all in the way of love, so as not to be disappointed. It works. It gets to be a habit.
BARBARA KINGSOLVER, Animal Dreams
Small change, small wonders--these are the currency of my endurance and ultimately of my life. It's a workable economy.
BARBARA KINGSOLVER, Small Wonder
