Gilbert has established herself as a straight-up storyteller who dares us into adventures of worldly discovery, and this novel stands as a winning next act. THE SIGNATURE OF ALL THINGS is a bracing homage to the many natures of genius and the inevitable progress of ideas, in a world that reveals its best truths to the uncommonly patient minds (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes)
I grew up aware of all the people I depended on and who depended on me (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes)

You can be as earnest and ridiculous as you need to be, if you don’t attempt it in isolation. The ridiculously earnest are known to travel in groups. And they are known to change the world (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes)
A miscarriage is a natural and common event. All told, probably more women have lost a child from this world than haven’t. Most don’t mention it, and they go on from day to day as if it hadn’t happened, so people imagine a woman in this situation never really knew or loved what she had. But ask her sometime: how old would your child be now? And she’ll know (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes)
Literature duplicates the experience of living in a way that nothing else can, drawing you so fully into another life that you temporarily forget you have one of your own. That is why you read it, and might even sit up in bed till early dawn, throwing your whole tomorrow out of whack, simply to find out what happens to some people who, you know perfectly well, are made up (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes)
It’s a funny thing: people often ask how I discipline myself to write. I can’t begin to understand the question. For me, the discipline is turning off the computer and leaving my desk to do something else (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes)
A writer’s occupational hazard: I think of eavesdropping as minding my business (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes)
The substance of grief is not imaginary. It’s as real as rope or the absence of air, and like both those things, it can kill (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes)

A woman knows she can walk away from a pot to tend something else and the pot will go on boiling; if she couldn’t this world would end at once (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes)
The thing is, it’s my own fault. I just can’t put up with a person that won’t go out of his way for me. And that’s what a man is. Somebody that won’t go out of his way for you. I bet it says that in the dictionary (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes)
What life can I live that will let me breathe in and out and love somebody or something and not run off screaming into the woods? (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes)
Close the door. Write with no one looking over your shoulder. Don’t try to figure out what other people want to hear from you; figure out what you have to say. It’s the one and only thing you have to offer (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes)
Empathy is really the opposite of spiritual meanness. It's the capacity to understand that every war is both won and lost. And that someone else's pain is as meaningful as your own (Barbara Kingsolver Quotes)
