"I love wisdom. And you can never be great at anything unless you love it. Not be in love with it, but love the thing, admire the thing. And it seems that if you love the thing, and you don't just want to possess it, it will find you."
Wisdom
"Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness."
Music
"Fighting for one's freedom, struggling towards being free, is like struggling to be a poet or a good Christian or a good Jew or a good Muslim or good Zen Buddhist. You work all day long and achieve some kind of level of success by nightfall, go to sleep and wake up the next morning with the job still to be done. So you start all over again."
Liberation
"I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."
Relationship
"Go," she whispered. "Go. Show them you spell your name W-O-M-A-N."
Feminism
"In order to be profoundly dishonest, a person must have one of two qualities: either he is unscrupulously ambitious, or he is unswervingly egocentric. He must believe his ends to be served all things and people can justifiably be shifted about, or that he is the center not only of his own world but of the worlds which others inhabit."
Morality
"I've read everything Thomas Wolfe ever wrote; my brother and I memorized whole chapters of 'You Can't Go Home Again' and 'Look Homeward, Angel.'"

Courage
"All great artists draw from the same resource: the human heart, which tells us that we are all more alike than we are unalike."
Art
"I found it hard to think of leaving my books. They had been my elevators out of the midden, and to whom could I entrust such close friends?"
