GENERAL BOOKS ABOUT LANGUAGE Highly readable, witty, and provocative is Roger Brown's Words and Things. Also readable, magnificent, though sometimes too dogmatic, is Eric H. Lenneberg's Biological Foundations of Language. The deepest and most beautiful explorations of all are to be found in L. S. Vygotsky's Thought and Language, originally published in Russian, posthumously, in 1934, and later translated by Eugenia Hanfmann and Gertrude Vahar. Vygotsky has been described - not unjustly - as "the Mozart of psychology." A personal favorite of mine is Joseph Church's Language and the Discovery of Reality: A Developmental Psychology of Cognition, a book one goes back to again and again. ~ Oliver Sacks
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Oliver Sacks
Victoria Park looks like every other inner-city park in every other city in Canada; a large and handsome memorial to the war dead surrounded by a square block of hard-tracked grass and benches where people can sit and look at statues of politicians or at flower beds planted with petunias and marigolds, the cheap and the hardy, downtown survivors. ~ Gail Bowen
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Gail Bowen
Mount Pleasant was an older town, where no two houses, standing side by side, seemed to come out of the same architectural style, with nineteenth-century Victorians up against pastel-colored postwar ramblers. Most of the houses had traditional flower gardens with marigolds and zinnias, and some with head-high sunflowers. ~ John Sandford
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by John Sandford
We learn to believe by believing. We learn to love by loving. The practice of acting on a certain thing, even (or especially) when feeling is absent, embodies the entire "how" of growth. ~ Eugenia Price
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Eugenia Price
For one does not have to be ignorant and poor to find that one's life is barren as the dusty yards of one's town ~ Eugenia Collier
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Eugenia Collier
Because it wasn't enough to be accompanied by the beast who scared the crap out of every god in Heaven, Xuanzang was assigned a few more traveling companions. The gluttonous pig-man Zhu Baijie. Sha Wujing, the repentant sand demon. And the Dragon Prince of the West Sea, who took the form of a horse for Xuanzang to ride. The five adventurers, thusly gathered, set off on their -

"Holy ballsacks!" I yelped. I dropped the book like I'd been bitten.

"How far did you get?" Quentin said.

He was leaning against the end of the nearest shelf, as casually as if he'd been there the whole time, waiting for this moment.

I ignored that he'd snuck up on me again, just this once. There was a bigger issue at play.

In the book was an illustration of the group done up in bold lines and bright colors. There was Sun Wukong at the front, dressed in a beggar's cassock, holding his Ruyi Jingu Bang in one hand and the reins of the Dragon Horse in the other. A scary-looking pig-faced man and a wide-eyed demon monk followed, carrying the luggage. And perched on top of the horse was . . . me.

The artist had tried to give Xuanzang delicate, beatific features and ended up with a rather girly face. By whatever coincidence, the drawing of Sun Wukong's old master could have been a rough caricature of sixteen-year-old Eugenia Lo from Santa Firenza, California.

"That's who you think I am?" I said to Quentin.

"That's who I k ~ F.C. Yee
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by F.C. Yee
Anybody who is anybody seems to be getting a lift - by plastic surgery these days. It's the new world wide craze that combines the satisfactions of psychoanalysis, massage, and a trip to the beauty salon. ~ Eugenia Sheppard
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Eugenia Sheppard
Tell me "The Subtle Briar" again,' she asked. She knew I would still know it by heart. I whispered to her in the dark.

'When you cut down the hybrid rose,
its blackened stump below the graft
spreads furtive fingers in the dirt.
It claws at life, weaving a raft
of suckering roots to pierce the earth.
The first thin shoot is fierce and green,
a pliant whip of furious briar
splitting the soil, gulping the light.
You hack it down. It skulks between
the flagstones of the garden path
to nurse a hungry spur in shade
against the porch. With iron spade
you dig and drag it from the gravel
and toss it living on the fire.

'It claws up towards the light again
hidden from view, avoiding battle
beyond the fence. Unnoticed, then,
unloved, unfed, it clings and grows
in the wild hedge. The subtle briar
armors itself with desperate thorns
and stubborn leaves – and struggling higher,
unquenchable, it now adorns
itself with blossom, till the stalk
is crowned with beauty, papery white
fine petals thin as chips of chalk
or shaven bone, drinking the light.

Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Elizabeth Wein
As a writer, I'm always at the mercy of my inspiration, my intuition, and my imagination. ~ Kate Collier
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Kate  Collier
He's morbidly obese. He's unusually bloated. There are needle marks on his abdomen and thighs that indicate he's an insulin-dependent diabetic. His diet was fast food and Skittles.

Collier looked skeptical. "So Harding conveniently slipped into a diabetic coma during the middle of a death match? ~ Karin Slaughter
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Karin Slaughter
Paul Otremba's remarkable first book, The Currency, is an intriguing foray into lyric epistemology that tries to come to ter ms with the implacable, paradox-ridden nature of knowledge and experience. These are deeply felt, deeply meditated poems guided by a sensibility highly attenuated to the physical world. In their openness to friendship and love and in their fearless directness, they remind me of the work of Larry Levis and Jon Anderson. Like Levis and Anderson, Otremba promises to be an influential and important voice for his generation. ~ Michael Collier
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Michael Collier
The greater the prevalence of positive thoughts, the more likely you are to receive a positive outcome. ~ Robert Collier
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Robert Collier
Fortitude implies a firmness and strength of mind, that enables us to do and suffer as we ought. It rises upon an opposition, and, like a river, swells the higher for having its course stopped. ~ Jeremy Collier
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Jeremy Collier
Instead of being afraid of that darkness, we should bring everyone to the edge of it and say: Look! Here is an area that needs illumination Bring fire, torches, candles -- anything you can think of that will cast light. Then we can lay down our foundations and build our great buildings, cure diseases, invent fabulous new machines, and whatever else we think the human race should be doing. But first of all we need some light. ~ Eugenia Cheng
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Eugenia Cheng
It is only when you despair of all ordinary means, it is only when you convince it that it must help you or you perish, that the seed of life in you bestirs itself to provide a new resource. ~ Robert Collier
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Robert Collier
Mistress Mary, quite contrary,
How does your garden grow?
With Silver Bells, and Cockle Shells,
And marigolds all in a row. ~ Frances Hodgson Burnett
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Frances Hodgson Burnett
You cannot hold on to anything good. You must be continually giving - and getting. You cannot hold on to your seed. You must sow it - and reap anew. You cannot hold on to riches. You must use them and get other riches in return. ~ Robert Collier
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Robert Collier
There are few things reason can discover with so much certainty and ease as its own insufficiency. ~ Jeremy Collier
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Jeremy Collier
Make every thought, every fact, that comes into your mind pay you a profit. Make it work and produce for you. Think of things not as they are but as they might be. Don't merely dream - but create! ~ Robert Collier
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Robert Collier
The end of pleasure is to support the offices of life, to relieve the fatigues of business, to reward a regular action, and to encourage the continuance. ~ Jeremy Collier
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Jeremy Collier
First the stalk - then the roots. First the need - then the means to satisfy that need. First the nucleus -then the elements needed for its growth. ~ Robert Collier
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Robert Collier
I always had a sense that clothes, be it uniform or vintage, could help to create a character. ~ Collier Schorr
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Collier Schorr
Make your mold. The best flux in the world will not make a usable shape unless you have a mold to pour it in. ~ Robert Collier
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Robert Collier
A world without books would be a world not worth living in. ~ Eugenia Argerami
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Eugenia Argerami
Envy is an ill-natured vice, and is made up of meanness and malice. It wishes the force of goodness to be strained, and the measure of happiness abated. It laments over prosperity, and sickens at the sight of health. It oftentimes wants spirit as well as good nature. ~ Jeremy Collier
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Jeremy Collier
The aid agencies are not run by fools. they are full of intelligent people severely constrained by what public opinion permits. ~ Paul Collier
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Paul Collier
For some reason he remembered the Mexican name for carnations. Somebody must have told him when he was a kid. They were called Nails of Love ---and marigolds , the Nails of Death. It was a word lie nails---claveles. Maybe he'd better put marigolds on his mothers grave. ~ John Steinbeck
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by John Steinbeck
A single idea - the sudden flash of a thought - may be worth a million dollars. ~ Robert Collier
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Robert Collier
And what is this wild summons? What art is asked of us? The gift offered is different for each but all are equal in grandeur. To paint, draw, dance, compose. To write songs, poems, letters, diaries, prayers. To set a violet on the sill, stitch a quilt,; bake bread; plant marigolds, beans, apple trees. To follow the track of the forest elk, the neighborhood coyote, the cupboard mouse. To open the windows, air beds, sweep clean the corners. To hold the child's hand, listen to the vagrant's story, paint the elder friend's fingernails a delightful shade of pink while wrapped in a blanket she knit with deft young fingers of her past. To wander paths, nibble purslane, notice spiders. To be rained upon. To listen with changed ears and sing back what we hear. ~ Lyanda Lynn Haupt
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Lyanda Lynn Haupt
Your belief that you can do the thing gives your thought forces their power. ~ Robert Collier
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Robert Collier
In civilized life, where the happiness and indeed almost the existence of man, depends on the opinion of his fellow men. He is constantly acting a studied part. ~ Jeremy Collier
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Jeremy Collier
Start where you are. Distant fields always look greener, but opportunity lies right where you are. Take advantage of every opportunity of service. ~ Robert Collier
Marigolds By Eugenia Collier quotes by Robert Collier
Had she never been hungry enough to eat a flower? Did she not know that you could eat daisies, daylilies, pansies, and marigolds? That hungry enough, a person could consume the bright faces of violas, even the stems of dandelions and the bitter hips of roses? ~ Adam Johnson
