Joyce Carol Oates

Nature

Quote_1.png
Joyce Carol Oates
"Love commingled with hate is more powerful than love. Or hate."

Love

Quote_1.png
Joyce Carol Oates

Quote_1.png
Joyce Carol Oates

Change

Quote_1.png
Joyce Carol Oates
"Still, I am angry with him. I am very angry with him. With my poor dead defenseless husband, I am furious as I was rarely-perhaps never-furious with him, in life. How can I forgive you, you've ruined both our lives."

Emotion

Quote_1.png
Joyce Carol Oates
"Obviously the imagination is fueled by emotions beyond the control of the conscious mind."

Creativity

Quote_1.png
Joyce Carol Oates
"I feel very transparent in myself. I'm more of an observer. I'm interested in what's going on. I'm not sure that I really have a personality. Some people think I do have a personality. I have a personality when I am with certain people - but when I'm not with them I don't have that personality. I just sort of go back to resembling a transparent glass of water."

Self

Quote_1.png
Joyce Carol Oates
"A wet autumn morning, a garbage truck clattering down the street. The first snowfall of the season, blossom sized flakes falling languidly and melting on teh ground, a premature snow fall delicate as lace, rapidly melting."

Nature

Quote_1.png
Joyce Carol Oates
"It is utterly naive, futile, uninformed-to think that our species is exceptional. So designated to master the beasts of the Earth, as in the Book of Genesis!"

Philosophy

Quote_1.png
Joyce Carol Oates
"The coolly calibrated manipulation of the credulous American public, by an administration bent upon stoking paranoid patriotism!"
