More quotes by Louise Erdrich
Getting blown up happened in an instant; getting put together took the rest of your life.
When every inch of the world is known, sleep may be the only wilderness that we have left. (p190)
What are dreams but an internal wilderness and what is desire but a wildness of the soul? (p182)

Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind.
To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
Not for the body, but for the heart; companion and company are needed.
Love seldom haunts the breast where learning lies,
And Venus sets ere Mercury can rise.
