Lighting Out

I'm now teaching for the month at Middlebury College in Vermont.

Today's Quote

“If you’re going to light out, there has to be a something you are lighting from. From’s a given; from’s a certain. To is out there, in our minds, uncertain. No one can promise us a to. No one ever gives a certain future to us in our hands, that we can hold. If they allege that they can guarantee the future- if we believe they can- they are charlatans and we are party to their lies. And when you stand there in a place as immense as our own continental west with not another creature in you sight for miles and miles and miles around, you realize you are standing in the jaws of your existence. That the journey that you make through time- where you light out to- is the only meaning you can claim.”

- Marianne Wiggins, The Shadow Catcher
