"You may not know my reasons, but you can assume I have them and be kind."
"Help more than is needed. Care more than is required. Give more than is expected. Love more than is anticipated."

"I think that [William] Faulkner and I each had to escape certain particulars of our lives, and we found salvation through words. I understand the Bible story of Babel so much better now. I think that moments of extremity, desires of escape, lead us to foreign languages--not those learned in schools, but those plucked from the human heart, the searing conditions of isolation. I did not have to be limited to my biography because of words, and I shared this with Faulkner, who invented new words and punctuation and expression and worlds. He utterly reshaped the world."
"I've been accused of having a death wish but I think it's life that I wish for, terribly, shamelessly, on any terms whatsoever."
