1 " and half of learning to play is learning what not to play
and she's learning the spaces she leaves have their own things to say
and she's trying to sing just enough so that the air around her moves
and make music like mercy that gives what it is and has nothing to prove

she crawls out on a limb and begins to build her home
and it's enough just to look around and to know that she's not alone

up up up up up up up points the spire of the steeple
but god's work isn't done by god
it's done by people "

― Ani DiFranco

2 " To get it done
and see it thru,
find less to say
and more to do. "

― Richelle E. Goodrich , Slaying Dragons: Quotes, Poetry, & a few Short Stories for Every Day of the Year

4 " Upon awakening you may find
no need to speak nothing to say
and no one to convince.
Your very presence will spread
happiness wisdom and truth
to all you may encounter...
along the Way. "
