“You panic button collector. You clock of beautiful ticks. You run out the door if you need to. You flock to the front row of your own class. You feather everything until you know you can always, always shake like a leaf on my family tree and know you belong here. You belong here and everything you feel is okay. Everything you feel is okay.” IfsKnowsInspirationalNeedsFeelsRunningBeautifulPoetryClassDoorsTreeFrontsMy FamilyOkayClockShakesPanicButtonsLeafsFeathersFlocksCollectorsTick Author:Andrea Gibson
“Sometimes, you've got to be in a place. You're just another guy. You can just blend in. I live out in the wilds of nowhere, out in Jersey. Even there, there's sometimes problems. College students like journey out there and show up at 11 o'clock at night, on my porch, looking into the door not saying anything. My wife and I are sitting there; it's really creepy.” SometimesShowsProblemNightGuyWifeDoorsJourneyStudentsCollegeSittingMy WifeClockJerseyCreepyOther GuysPorchCollege StudentsReally Creepy Author:Lou Reed

“Every day at about four o'clock, I would go up to a farmhouse - or whatever kind of house was around - and knock on the door and say, "Hi, I'm biking across Canada, and I'm wondering if I could pitch my tent on your land." And sometimes people slammed the door in my face, but the vast majority of the time they said, "Of course," and then they said, "Come for dinner," and then they packed me food the next day and fed me breakfast and sometimes they got out the bottle of wine they'd been saving for a special occasion.” PeopleIfsKindSaidSometimesFacesCoursesNextHouseWonderFourDoorsLandSpecialMajorityWineDinnerSavingOccasionsClockIf I CouldCanadaFedsBreakfastBottlesThey SaidNext DayTentsBikingBottles Of WineSpecial Occasion Author:Pam Houston
“The only thing we took out was the Constitution of the State of Mississippi and the interpretation of the Constitution. We had 63,000 people registered on the Freedom Registration form. And we tried from every level to go into the regular Democratic Party medium. We tried from the precinct level. The 16th of June when they were holding precinct meetings all across the state, I was there and there was eight of us there to attend the meeting, and they had the door locked at 10 o'clock in the morning. This is what's happening in the State of Mississippi.” PeopleStatesFormLevelsPartyMorningDoorsHappeningsConstitutionDemocraticMeetingsEightMediumsClockInterpretationLockedJuneDemocratic PartyMississippiRegistration Author:Fannie Lou Hamer
