Ursula K. Le Guin Quotes

The Poet Gary Snyder's Finely Unpoetic Image Of Composting Is Useful Here. Stuff Goes Into The Writer, A Whole Lot Of Stuff, Not Notes In A Notebook But Everything Seen And Heard And Felt All Day Every Day, A Lot Of Garbage, Leftovers, Dead Leaves, Eyes Of Potatoes, Artichoke Stems, Forests, Streets, Rooms In Slums, Mountain Ranges, Voices, Screams, Dreams, Whispers, Smells, Blows, Eyes, Gaits, Gestures, The Touch Of A Hand, A Whistle In The Night, The Slant Of Light On The Wall Of A Child's Room, A Fin In A Waste Of Waters. All This Stuff Goes Down Into The Novelist's Personal Compost Bin, Where It Combines, Recombines, Changes; Gets Dark, Mulchy, Fertile, Turns Into Ground. A Seed Falls Into It, The Ground Nourishes The Seed With The Richness That Went Into It, And Something Grows. But What Grows Isn't An Artichoke Stem And A Potato Eye And A Gesture. It's A New Thing, A New Whole. It's Made Up.
