Quote by Erin A. Craig

“Beauty exists everywhere in the world. Love resides in all of us. That' the point. I only... I only want to deepen that. Show that there can be-- that there should be-- substance in it all... There is love in caring for the sick, the weak, the ugly. A wilting flower holds just as much splendor as one on the cusp of opening. People are so quick to idolize the fresh and the new. They fetishize it...Why should we celebrate one without the other?”

“It is this true that only the Christians have made Aphrodite utterly beautiful, a wonder for the soul; the Christian poets or those who while renouncing their Christianity owe to it all their feeling and their art have fashioned nymphs and dryads of which not even Greek ever dreamt; the real glory of Latmos was made by Keats.”

“Every book grants you the language you need to make contact with something you had no idea even existed: a tree’s pores, a fox’s nose, sadness on a face, a nation’s suffering. Look how beautiful you look as you read.”

“Her nose was crooked, as though it might have been broken a couple of times. She also had a broken tooth and her hand was in a bandage. She was still beautiful. She refused to stop being beautiful. No matter what men did to her, no matter how many times she was knocked down the stairs. The same reason she was still beautiful was the same reason she was here. She was resilient. She refused to be ugly.”

“I drove all the way to Cape Disappointment but didn't have the energy to get out of the car. Rental. Blue Ford Focus. I had to stop in a semi-public place to pee on the ground. Just squatted there on the roadside. I don't know what's up with my bladder. I pee and then I have to pee and pee again. Instead of sightseeing I climbed into the back seat of the car and took a nap. I'm a little like Frank O'Hara without the handsome nose and penis and New York School and Larry Rivers. Paid for a day pass at Cape Disappointment thinking hard about that long drop from the lighthouse to the sea. Thought about going into the Ocean Medical Center for a checkup but how do I explain this restless search for beauty or relief?”
