"One of the very first things I figured out about life is that it's better to be a hopeful person than a cynical, grumpy one, because you have to live in the same world either way, and if you're hopeful, you have more fun." ~Barbara Kingsolver
"Stop a minute, right where you are. Relax your shoulders, shake your head and spine like a dog shaking off cold water. Tell that imperious voice in your head to be still..." ~Barbara Kingsolver
"The power is in the balance: We are our injuries, as much as we are our successes." ~Barbara Kingsolver
"The very best you can do in your life is figure out what you hope for. And the most you can do is live inside that hope. Not admire it from a distance, but live right in it, under its roof." ~Barbara Kingsolver
"To be hopeful, to embrace one possibility after another-that is surely the basic instinct...crying out: high Tide! Time to move out into the glorious debris. Time to take this life for what it is." ~Barbara Kingsolver
