" "How the flowers were fired and colored into the design. Perhaps this sort of gesture will be lost, perhaps it is a function of consciousness that we don’t need in order to survive. Perhaps this piece of evolution makes no sense — our hunger for everyday sorts of visual pleasure — but I don’t think so. I think we have survived because we love beauty and because we find each other beautiful. I think it may be our strongest quality.

Additional quotes by Louise Erdrich
Pain comes to us from deep back, from where it grew in the human body. Pain sucks more pain into it, we don't know why. It lives, and we harbor its weight. When the worst comes, we will not act the opposite. We will do what we were taught, we who learnt our lessons in the dead light. We pass them on. We hurt, and hurt others, in a circular motion. (p199)
