Your life feels different on you, once you greet death and understand your heart's position.
Louise Erdrich
Image
I thought how we might have to yell to be heard by Higher Power, but that's not saying it's not there. And that is faith for you. It's belief even when the gods don't deliver.

Louise Erdrich
Image
It is easy to take away the world that we think is so permanent and reliable.
Louise Erdrich
Image
I work really out of mythology, so often I work out of a story that has remained lodged inside somehow, or I work out of history, you know, out of a sense of historical inevitability with characters.
Louise Erdrich
