Because we want to know things, how the pieces fit. Talkers seduce, words direct us into corners. We want more than anything to grow and change. Brave new world. Michael Ondaatje
I do not find that I grow any older. Being arrived at seventy, and considering that by traveling further in the same road I should probably be led to the grave, I stopped short, turned about, and walked back again; which having done these four years, you may now call me sixty-six.

Ever since this day I have dreamt sometimes... I, a street rat in my soul, dream even now... that if it were possible to life this littered, paved Manhattan from the earth... and all its torn and dripping pipes and conduits and tunnels and tracks and cables--all of it, like a scab from new skin underneath--how seedlings would sprout and freshets bubble up, and brush and grasses would grow over the rolling hills... E. L. Doctorow

Audre Lorde

A prolonged silence ensues. The reason for the silence is our growing interest one for the other. No one is aware of it, no one yet; no one? am I quite sure? Marguerite Duras
Occasionally the very youngness of the young moved him to charity--they had no sense of the swiftness of life, nor of its limits. The years would pass like weeks, and loves would pass too, or else grow sour. Larry McMurtry
The assignment of purpose to everything is called teleology. Children are native teleologists, and many never grow out of it. Richard Dawkins
Silver flow the streams from Celos to Erui. In the green fields of Lebennin! Tall grows the grass there. In the wind from the Sea. The white lilies sway, And the golden bells are shaken of mallos and alfirin. In the green fields of Lebennin, In the wind from the Sea! J. R. R. Tolkien
