Adrienne Rich
Language is power... Language can be used as a means of changing reality.
Adrienne Rich
The password is a flicker of an eyelash.
Adrienne Rich
The mind's passion is all for singling out. Obscurity has another tale to tell.
Adrienne Rich
Poems are like dreams: in them you put what you don't know you know.
Adrienne Rich
Even where love has run thin the child's soul musters strength... the rush of purpose to make a life worth living past abandonment building the layers up again over the torn hole.
Adrienne Rich
No one sleeps in this room without the dream of a common language.
Adrienne Rich
In America we have only the present tense. I am in danger. You are in danger.
