― Virginia Woolf, A Writer's Diary
[ text ID: Yes, I deserve a spring–I owe nobody nothing. ]
Anton Chekhov, from The Complete Plays of Anton Chekhov; "Ivanoff,"
Except for the body of someone you love, including all its expressions in privacy and in public,
trees, I think, are the most beautiful forms on the earth.
Though, admittedly, if this were a contest, the trees would come in an extremely distant second
- Mary Oliver, Wild Geese
„What she wanted was to sit on her mother's lap and be small. Smaller than her mother and smaller than her mother's lap. She wanted not to realize the breadth of separation that arrives with growing up, gradual, never complete: crawling, playing hide-and-seek...sneaking a cigarette...a neon-yellow bikini“
- Kimiko Hahn, the unbearable heart
in him my twin likeness all flesh a mirror pentimento palimpsest all traces seeds pressed in flower beds a diary of enchantment his hands hold mine keep me standing firm ground my heart the angel eye of love stands guard protects our union we are too much one too much each other
bell hooks
How happy I am, lounging in the light, listening as the music floats by! And I give thanks also for my mind, that thought of giving a gift. And mostly I’m grateful that I take this world so seriously

I give her sadness, and the gift of pain, The new-moon madness, and the love of rain.

Hush, beloved. It doesn't matter to me how many summers I live to return: this one summer we have entered eternity. I felt your two hands bury me to release its splendor.

Sylvia Plath, "The Rival." Ariel
Enheduanna is the world’s earliest known author. A woman who wielded incredible power and authority, her legacy has stretched over time longer than she likely ever anticipated.
BASIC BIO: (c. 2300 BC) Enheduanna was the daughter of King Sargon of Akkad, and appointed by him to be the high priestess of the goddess Inanna and god Nanna in the Sumerian city of Ur. This politically-motivated move (he knew she’d be good for unity in the kingdom) exposed Enheduanna to great power, and she was essentially responsible for Sumer’s entire spiritual system. In her capacity as priestess, she composed a number of poems and hymns, not only in devotion to her gods, but also in reference to herself. She is, to date, the first example of an artist who signed her work.
HER IMPACT: Enheduanna continues to be celebrated around the world for not only her writings, but for the social and political significance of her role as high priestess. Her writings are available to read online, and offer an interesting insight into the education and literacy of women in Sumerian culture. Neil deGrasse Tyson’s Cosmos series dedicates some time to her, and she is the subject of many modern feminist debates. Perhaps my favorite thing about Enheduanna is that what we know about her is informed largely by what she wrote about herself - it’s not the most unbiased portrait, but I love that she herself was allowed to create it.
