moon wind whispering
We exist with a wind whispering inside and our moon flexing. Amid the ducts, inside the basilica of bones.
time burning speed
We are all burning in time, but each is consumed at his own speed.
littles greedy
Why do so manysettle for so little? I don't understand why they're not greedy for what's inside them.
risk devil attention
We must risk delight. We can do without pleasure, but not delight. Not enjoyment. We must have the stubbornness to accept our gladness in the ruthless furnace of this world. To make injustice the only measure of our attention is to praise the Devil.
women heart dark
I ask myself what is the sound of women? What is the word for that still thing I have hunted inside them for so long? Deep inside the avalanche of joy, the thing deeper in the dark, and deeper still in the bed where we are lost. Deeper, deeper down where a woman's heart is holding its breath, where something very far away in that body is becoming something we don't have a name for.
dream heart angel
Our heart wanders lost in the dark woods. Our dream wrestles in the castle of doubt. But there’s music in us. Hope is pushed down but the angel flies up again taking us with her.
jobs moving pride
Being alive is so extraordinary I don’t know why people limit it to riches, pride, security—all of those things life is built on. People miss so much because they want money and comfort and pride, a house and a job to pay for the house. And they have to get a car. You can’t see anything from a car. It’s moving too fast. People take vacations. That’s their reward—the vacation. Why not the life?
stars lovely constellations
We must unlearn the constellations to see the stars.
world accepting stubbornness
We must have the stubbornness to accept our gladness in the ruthless furnace of this world.
dream vocabulary might
I dream of lost vocabularies that might express some of what we no longer can.
lying heart
The heart lies to itself because it must.
four married slaughter
There was never any question about his (Enos Slaughter) courage. He proved it by getting married four times.
country roots mind
I've always tried to keep in mind that I'm in grass-roots country and I'm grass-roots-born and -reared. I don't use the so-called 'sophisticated approach' to broadcasting that is used in other parts of the country.
sports integrity dry
I regard sports first and foremost as entertainment, so dry documentary narration is not for me. I like the 'let's forget our troubles and have some excitement' approach. I'm convinced you can combine this with reporting integrity and accuracy.
