In a life properly lived, you’re a river. You touch things lightly or deeply; you move along because life herself moves, and you can’t stop it; you can’t figure out a banal game plan applicable to all situations; you just have to go with the ‘beingness’ of life.

— Jim Harrison, from "Jim Harrison, The Art of Fiction No. 104" in The Paris Review, Issue 107, Summer 1988
