"Death is not the final word. Without ears, my father still listens, still shrugs his shoulders whenever I ask a question he doesn't want to answer ... Without eyes, my father still looks around. He sees what I am trying to do, sees that I have grown less passive with his passing, understands my need for answers only he can provide." - Lisa Zaran

"I stayed on to warm up the ink in which I drown and to listen to my alternative cavern, tactile nights, abstracted days. The unknown shuddered in my tonsil and I creaked from an annual melancholy, solar nights, lunar days, Parisian sunsets. And still, this very day, at nightfall, I digest the most scared certainties, maternal nights, great-granddaughter days, bicolored, voluptuous, urgent, lovely." - Cesar Vallejo

"Listen to the mustn'ts, child. Listen to the don'ts. Listen to the shouldn'ts, the impossibles, the won'ts. Listen to the never haves, then listen close to me ... Anything can happen, child. Anything can be." - Shel Silverstein
