Anne Roiphe
Decay is quiet but ghastly, explosion is dramatic and dreadful. There's not much to choose between the two of them in reality, and most of our lives have sufficient of both.

Not knowing anything is the sweetest life...Poetry is about the grief...Words are only painted fire; a look is the fire itself...Each heartfelt prayer, each Church meeting attended...Dream in a pragmatic way...Love all, trust a few...
