More quotes by Rita Mae Brown
I'm sorry that our country and the people do not consider the arts as vital to our well-being as, say, medicine. Suffering is unnecessary. It doesn't make you a better artist it only makes you a hungry one. However, to me the acquisition of the craft of writing was worth any amount of suffering.

Wearing earrings is not culture.
Rita Mae Brown
Normal is the average of deviance.

We all want to leave our children the Garden of Eden and we wind up giving them hardscrabble.
Rita Mae Brown
Oh well, maybe the only beauty left in cities is in the oil slicks on the road and maybe there isn't any beauty left in the people who live in these places.
Rita Mae Brown
We have the ability to be the Athens of modern times as opposed to the militaristic Sparta. I remind you that the Athenians wrote poetry. The Spartans did not.
Rita Mae Brown
Whenever I doubt the existence of God or the Goddess, I look at horses. Only God could have made a horse.
