Ruth Sawyer Quotes

To Be A Good Storyteller One Must Be Gloriously Alive. It Is Not Possible To Kindle Fresh Fires From Burned-out Embers. I Have Noticed That The Best Of The Traditional Storytellers Whom I Have Heard Have Been Those Who Live Close To The Heart Of Things-to The Earth, The Sea, Wind And Weather. They Have Been Those Who Knew Solitude, Silence. They Have Been Given Unbroken Time In Which To Feel Deeply, To Reach Constantly For Understanding. They Have Come To Know The Power Of The Spoken Word. These Storytellers Have Been Sailors And Peasants, Wanderers And Fisherman.
