Margaret Atwood
“People change, though, especially after they are dead.”
Margaret Atwood, Bluebeard's Egg

Margaret Atwood
“nothing is more opaque than absolute transparency. Look--my feet don't hit the marble! Like breath or a balloon, I'm rising, I hover six inches in the air in my blazing swan-egg of light. You think I'm not a goddess? Try me. This is a torch song. Touch me and you'll burn.”
Margaret Atwood

Margaret Atwood
“I’ve been prepared for almost anything; except absence, except silence.”
Margaret Atwood, Cat's Eye

Margaret Atwood
“A lot of people call you a feminist painter."
"What indeed," I say. "I hate party lines, I hate ghettos. Anyway. I'm too old to have invented it and you're too young to understand it, so what's the point of discussing it at all?”
Margaret Atwood

Margaret Atwood
“Though I knew how this failure would hurt you, I had to fold like a grey moth and let go.

You could not believe I was more than your echo.”
Margaret Atwood, Interlunar
