Terry Tempest Williams Quotes
The Nature Of Living And Loving Is The Act Of Reciprocity. As Women, We Are Told That To Be The Guest Is To Receive. We Are Told That To Be The Host Is To Give. But What If It Is The Reverse? What If It Is The Guest Who Gives To The Host And It Is The Host Who Receives From The Guest Each Time She Sets Her Table To Welcome And Feed Those She Loves? To Be The Guest And The Host Simultaneously Is To Imagine A Mutual Exchange Of Gifts Predicated On Respect And Joy. If We Could Adopt This Truth, Perhaps We As Women Would Be Less Likely To Become Martyrs.
