“The only thing I collect is art. I collect it because I like looking at it. A lot of it is really personal stuff that my friends have made, paintings that my husband's mother made, and things that I bought. I buy abstract art on eBay, and I buy some outsider art on eBay, or what is called folk art, I buy a lot of. I have a lot of professional art work as well as more stuff my friends' kids make. To have a wall of art to look at, I feel really surrounded by love, because so much of the work is related to my friendships.” FeelsWellsLooksArtMadeKidsMotherStuffLove IsPaintingWallHusbandMy FriendsFolksRelatedAbstractMy HusbandOutsidersMy FriendshipAbstract ArtEbayFolk ArtPersonal StuffSurrounded By Love Author:Kathleen Hanna

“The most powerful words in English are 'Tell me a story,' words that are intimately related to the complexity of history, the origins of language, the continuity of the species, the taproot of our humanity, our singularity, and art itself. I was born into the century in which novels lost their stories, poems their rhymes, paintings their form, and music its beauty, but that does not mean I had to like that trend or go along with it. I fight against these movements with every book I write.” WritingMeanDoeArtBookStoriesFormHumanityFightingLostLanguageBornPowerfulNovelCenturyMovementPaintingSpeciesRelatedComplexityMost PowerfulTrendsRhymeContinuitySingularityPowerful Words Author:Pat Conroy
