Quotes

• “Writing visits like grace. Its greatest gift is the comfort if not the joy of transformation. In an inspired moment, we almost believe that anguish can be made bearable and injustice can be overturned, because they can be named. And if we’re lucky, joy can even be multiplied a hundredfold, so we may have reserves in the cupboard for the lean times.”
• “Pride is a sin, but dignity is a saviour.”
• “The eyes catch a black bird close to an eerie sun. Instantly, a poem: an accident of composition.”
