&ldquo;The capital-T truth is about life BEFORE death. It is about the real value of a real education, which has almost nothing to do with knowledge, and everything to do with simple awareness; awareness of what is so real and essential, so hidden in plain sight all around us, all the time, that we have to keep reminding ourselves over and over: this is water. This is water.&rdquo;

&quot;I write because I want more than one life; I insist on a wider selection. It&#039;s greed plain and simple. When my characters join the circus, I&#039;m joining the circus.&quot; -Anne Tyler
