Sharon Creech, Absolutely Normal Chaos

“You can't keep the birds of sadness from flying over your head, but you can keep them from nesting in your hair.”
Sharon Creech, Walk Two Moons

“If I had written the greatest book, composed the greatest symphony, painted the most beautiful painting or carved the most exquisite figure I could not have felt the more exalted creator than I did when they placed my child in my arms.”
Dorothy Day

Toni Morrison, Beloved
