More quotes by Clarissa Pinkola Estes
To love means to embrace and at the same time to withstand many endings, and many many beginnings- all in the same relationship.
Clarissa Pinkola Estes
Be proud of your scars. They have everything to do with your strength, and what you've endured. They're a treasure map to the deep self.
Clarissa Pinkola Estes
Stories are medicine.
Clarissa Pinkola Estes
My brain has no heart, and my heart has no brain. That's why when I speak my mind, I appear heartless and when I do what's in my heart I seem thoughtless.
Clarissa Pinkola Estes
One of the most calming and powerful actions you can do to intervene in a stormy world is to stand up and show your soul. Struggling souls catch light from other souls who are fully lit and willing to show it.
Clarissa Pinkola Estes
A woman who is starved for her real soul-life may look 'cleaned up and combed' on the outside, but on the inside she is filled with dozens of pleading hands and empty mouths.
Clarissa Pinkola Estes
Story is a medicine which strengthens and arights the individual and the community.
Clarissa Pinkola Estes
Go out in the woods, go out. If you don't go out in the woods nothing will ever happen and your life will never begin.
Clarissa Pinkola Estes
If you have never been called a defiant, incorrigible, impossible woman… have faith. There is yet time.
Clarissa Pinkola Estes
Art is not meant to be created in stolen moments only.
Clarissa Pinkola Estes
Some say that sudden knowledge of mystical matters is accomplished only in complete quietude, or that Creator, in one of God's many forms, appears only in orderly ways that are beauteous and picturesque, or that the mystical appears only in completely silent ways. All are true. Except for the 'only' part.
Clarissa Pinkola Estes
At bottom is the best soil to sow and grow something new again. In that sense, hitting bottom, while extremely painful, is also the sowing ground.
Clarissa Pinkola Estes
If you have ever been called defiant, incorrigible, forward, cunning, insurgent, unruly, rebellious, you're on the right track.
Clarissa Pinkola Estes
God forgives us. ... Who am I not to forgive?
Clarissa Pinkola Estes
Be wild that is how to clear the river.
Clarissa Pinkola Estes
I have to go to the woods, and I have to meet the wolf, or else my life will never begin.
Clarissa Pinkola Estes
The body is like the earth ... as vulnerable to overbuilding, being carved into parcels, cut off, overmined, and shorn of its power as any landscape.
Clarissa Pinkola Estes
I hope you will go out and let stories happen to you, and that you will work them, water them with your blood and tears and you laughter till they bloom, till you yourself burst into bloom.
Clarissa Pinkola Estes
When you focus with soul eyes, / You will see home in many, many places.
Clarissa Pinkola Estes
To love pleasure takes little. To love truly takes a hero who can manage his own fear.
Clarissa Pinkola Estes
