Text Quotes
I love to write and I love the natural world. Everything I’ve written about I’ve found exciting and it has never left me at a loss for words. I’ve always just done what I love  (Jean Craighead George Quotes) I met senators, diplomats and the President of the United States, Franklin Delano Roosevelt  (Jean Craighead George Quotes) Children will often write, ‘We love your books because there are no adults in them.’  (Jean Craighead George Quotes) Children are still in love with the wonders of nature, and I am, too. So I write them stories in hopes that they will want to protect all the beautiful creatures and places.  (Jean Craighead George Quotes) I would just watch the animals, and their stories would roll out when I wrote  (Jean Craighead George Quotes) Most of these wild animals depart in autumn when the sun changes their behavior and they feel the urge to migrate or go off alone. While they are with us, however, they become characters in my books, articles, and stories.  (Jean Craighead George Quotes) There are always the kids who just love animals. Unfortunately, though, people have become afraid of the outdoors.  (Jean Craighead George Quotes) Cat talk is a complicated, self-centered language. If you speak to your cat first, it probably won’t speak back. Cats initiate conversations  (Jean Craighead George Quotes) I throw back my head, and, feeling free as the wind, breathe in the fresh mountain air. Although I am heavy-hearted, my spirits are rising. To walk in nature is always good medicine  (Jean Craighead George Quotes) Most birds are geniuses. We had one that became a pet; he learned to talk, use tools and solve problems  (Jean Craighead George Quotes) That is the greatest gift my books have given me; what it means and has done for the kids  (Jean Craighead George Quotes) I just love the world around me and wanted my audience to love and appreciate it too  (Jean Craighead George Quotes) When fear seizes, change what you are doing. You are doing something wrong  (Jean Craighead George Quotes) I love to travel, but when I really want to escape, I read a book  (Jean Craighead George Quotes) Be you writer or reader, it is very pleasant to run away in a book  (Jean Craighead George Quotes) There is something all life has in common, and when I know what it is I shall know myself  (Jean Craighead George Quotes) I believe that if a child has a feel for writing and wants to write, there is an audience. Children should just dive in and go at it. I would encourage children to write about themselves and things that are happening to them. It is a lot easier and they know the subject better if they use something out of their everyday lives as an inspiration. Read stories, listen to stories, to develop an understanding of what stories are all about  (Jean Craighead George Quotes) To be a writer you should read, write and talk to people, hear their knowledge, hear their problems. Be a good listener. The rest will come  (Jean Craighead George Quotes) We humans will never know how meadows or mountains smell, but deer and horses and pigs do. Bando sniffs deeply and shakes his head. We were left out when it comes to smelling things, he says. I would love to be able to smell a mountain and follow my nose to it  (Jean Craighead George Quotes) I must say this now about that first fire. It was magic. Out of dead tinder and grass and sticks came a live warm light. It cracked and snapped and smoked and filled the woods with brightness. It lighted the trees and made them warm and friendly. It stood tall and bright and held back the night  (Jean Craighead George Quotes)
