Jayber Crow: A Novel | Wendell Berry

Telling a story is like reaching into a granary full of wheat and drawing out a handful. There is always more to tell than can be told.

“Say it, reader. Say the word 'quest' out loud. It is an extraordinary word, isn't it? So small and yet so full of wonder, so full of hope.”

RaimeyGallant Nice quote! And a belated welcome to Litsy! #LitsyWelcomeWagon Some of us put together Litsy tips to help new Littens navigate the site. It's the link in my bio on my page in case you're interested. :) 6y

“I hope you will go out and let stories, that is life, happen to you, and that you will work with these stories... water them with your blood and tears and your laughter till they bloom, till you yourself burst into bloom."

"Everybody has to deal with vaginas. You either have one, came from one, or are trying to be in a relationship with one. I believe males have an important role in protecting, or at least respecting, female health."

I believe in some blending of hope and sunshine sweetening the worst lots. I believe that this life is not all; neither the beginning nor the end. I believe while I tremble; I trust while I weep.

"They seek him here
They seek him there
Those frenchies seek him everywhere.

Is he in heaven
Or is he in hell
That demmed elusive
Pimpernel"

Found The Scarlet Pimpernel in Oxford last week. ?
