Peoples dreams are made out of what they do all day. The same way a dog that runs after rabbits will dream of rabbits. Its what you do that makes your soul, not the other way around. – Barbara Kingsolver
At home, growing up, we werent really poor. We had everything we needed, we just didnt have what we wanted. – Barbara Kingsolver
I suppose that is my central obsession. What we owe to society, what we owe to ourselves. – Barbara Kingsolver
I used to think religion was just more of the same thing. Dump responsibility on the big guy. Now I see an importance in that. Its a relief to accept that not everything is under your control. – Barbara Kingsolver
The readers are the ones who let us live our dreams. I try to write books which are really compelling – that youd take on vacation and rather than going out, youd read in your hotel room because you had to find out what happened. Hopefully thats what readers are responding to. – Harlan Coben
