“And don’t limit poetry to the word. Poetry can be found in music, a photograph, in the way a meal is prepared—anything with the stuff of revelation in it. It can exist in the most everyday things but it must never, never be ordinary. By all means, write about the sky or a girl’s smile, but when you do, let your poetry conjure up salvation day, doomsday, any day. I don’t care, as long as it enlightens us, thrills us and—if it’s inspired—makes us feel a bit immortal.”
― N.H. Kleinbaum, Dead Poets Society

“A thousand emotions have swept through me to-night. I don't comprehend half of them.”

“Josh's heart soared as he got a taste of the power and endurance in his elk body.”
