Andre Dubus Quotes
I Sing Of Those Who Cannot. To View Human Suffering As An Abstraction, As A Statement About How Plucky We All Are, Is To Blow Air Through Brass While The Boys And Girls March In Parade Off To War. Seeing The Flesh As Only A Challenge To The Spirit Is As False As Seeing The Spirit As Only A Challenge To The Flesh. On The Planet Are People With Whole And Strong Bodies, Whose Wounded Spirits Need The Constant Help That The Quadriplegic Needs For His Body. What We Need Is Not The Sound Of Horns Rising To The Sky, But The Steady Beat Of The Bass Drum. When You March To A Bass Drum, Your Left Foot Touches The Earth With Each Beat, And You Can Feel The Drum In Your Body: Boom And Boom And Boom And Pity People Pity People Pity People.
