“I was always much impressed, in reading prison memoirs of revolutionists, such as Lenin and Trotsky ... by the amount of reading they did, the languages they studied, the range of their plans for a better social order. (Or rather, for a new social order.) In the Acts of the Apostles there are constant references to the Way and the New Man.” MenWayOrderReadingLanguageSocialPlansAmountConstantPrisonMemoirRangeImpressedApostlesSocial OrderTrotsky Author:Dorothy Day
“Over the years, I've found that I either live life or write about it. I can't seem to do both simultaneously - I have to do it sequentially. When I write incessantly, I lose touch with the issues and passions that fuel the work. But when I get too involved in organizations or movement endeavors, I almost forget that I'm a writer. It's a constant struggle to find a balance between these two worlds - the solitary writing life and the life of a social justice activist.” WorldWritingYearsI CanTwoSeemsPassionFoundSocialLosesJusticeForgetStruggleIssuesMovementBalanceInvolvedOrganizationSocial JusticeConstantActivismLive LifeFuelActivistEndeavorSolitaryWriting LifeTwo WorldsIncessantlyConstant Struggle Author:Letty Cottin Pogrebin
“You who have never “been there” in the throes of grief, have no idea what is going on inside the head of the grieving spouse: the scattered thoughts, the constant worry that we will forget something or someone in our fog-induced state, that strange feeling of not quite “being all there” when out in social situations, the pall that covers everything, like a cloak of sadness that never lifts.” IdeasStatesFeelingsSocialForgetGriefSituationWorrySadnessStrangeConstantLiftsNo IdeaGrievingSpouseFogCloaks Author:Mary Potter
