The price of seeing is silence (Marge Piercy Quotes)
We seek not rest but transformation. We are dancing through each other as doorways (Marge Piercy Quotes)
The powerful don’t make revolutions (Marge Piercy Quotes)
The will to be totally rational is the will to be made out of glass and steel: and to use others as if they were glass and steel (Marge Piercy Quotes)
Attention is love, what we must give children, mothers, fathers, pets, our friends, the news, the woes of others. What we want to change we curse and then pick up a tool. Bless whatever you can with eyes and hands and tongue. If you can’t bless it, get ready to make it new (Marge Piercy Quotes)
Remember that every son had a mother whose beloved son he was, and every woman had a mother whose beloved son she wasn’t (Marge Piercy Quotes)
When I work I am pure as an angel tiger and clear is my eye and hot my brain and silent all the whining grunting piglets of the appetites (Marge Piercy Quotes)
The real writer is one who really writes. Talent is an invention like phlogiston after the fact of fire. Work is its own cure. You have to like it better than being loved (Marge Piercy Quotes)
Our wedding plans please everybody as if we were fertilizing the earth and creating social luck (Marge Piercy Quotes)
Long hair is considered bohemian, which may be why I grew it, but I keep it long because I love the way it feels, part cloak, part fan, part mane, part security blanket (Marge Piercy Quotes)
The body is simple as a turtle / and straight as a dog: / the body cannot lie (Marge Piercy Quotes)
Your anger was a climate I inhabited like a desert in a dry frigid weather of high thin air and ivory sun, sand dunes the wind lifted into stinging clouds that blinded and choked me where the only ice was in the blood (Marge Piercy Quotes)
Suppose that a person writes what she must. That is only the first step of becoming a writer. The work must survive the moment of creation. It must get out to an audience. She or he must dare to show the work. She must risk ridicule, misunderstanding, scandal, condemnation, and what’s often worse, none of the above: silence. No attention at all (Marge Piercy Quotes)
I mourn in grey, grey as the sleeted wind the bled shades of twilight, gunmetal, battleships, industrial paint (Marge Piercy Quotes)
The people I love the best, jump into work head first without dallying in the shallows (Marge Piercy Quotes)
The moon is always female and so am I although often in the vale of razorblades I have wished I could put on and take off my sex like a dress and why not? (Marge Piercy Quotes)
In her bottled up is a woman peppery as curry, a yam of a woman of butter and brass (Marge Piercy Quotes)
Shall I tell you something I’ve been noticing? The mistrust this society has for women. All kinds of experts and officials are terrified because so many women are working. They really think that women have to be coerced into having babies and raising kids (Marge Piercy Quotes)
A strong woman is a woman who craves love like oxygen or she turns blue choking. A strong woman is a woman who loves strongly and weeps strongly and is strongly terrified and has strong needs. A strong woman is strong in words, in action, in connection, in feeling; she is not strong as a stone but as a wolf suckling her young. Strength is not in her, but she enacts it as the wind fills a sail (Marge Piercy Quotes)
All women hustle. Women watch faces, voices, gestures, moods... She’s the person who has to survive through cunning (Marge Piercy Quotes)
Nobody hates us as ourselves. In their minds we’re not human... They don’t hate us because we did something or said something. They make us stand for an evil they invent and then they want to kill it in us (Marge Piercy Quotes)
We can only know what we can truly imagine. Finally what we see comes from ourselves (Marge Piercy Quotes)
What a richly colored strong warm coat is woven when love is the warp and work is the woof (Marge Piercy Quotes)
It hurts to love wide open stretching the muscles... It hurts to thwart the reflexes of grab, of clutch; to love and let go again and again (Marge Piercy Quotes)
We lie in each other’s arms eyes shut and fingers open and all the colors of the world pass through our bodies like strings of fire (Marge Piercy Quotes)
A strong woman is a woman at work, cleaning out the cesspool of the ages, and while she shovels, she talks about how she doesn’t mind crying, it opens the ducts of the eyes, and throwing up develops the stomach muscles, and she goes on shoveling with tears in her nose (Marge Piercy Quotes)
The best gift you can give is a hug: one size fits all and no one ever minds if you return it (Marge Piercy Quotes)
Doorways are sacred to women for we are the doorways of life and we must choose what comes in and what goes out (Marge Piercy Quotes)
Where I came from, the nights I had wandered and survived scared them, and where I would go they never imagined (Marge Piercy Quotes)
