The Most of It Quotes

“Although all poets aspire to be birds, no bird aspires to be a poet.”
― Mary Ruefle, The Most of It

“If you were very, very small, smaller than a leprechaun, smaller than a gnome or a fairy, and you lived in a vagina, every time a penis came in there would be a natural disaster. Your dishes would fall out of the cupboards and break and the furniture slide all the way to the other side of the room. It would take a long time to clean up afterwards.”
― Mary Ruefle, The Most of It
