Famous quotes containing the words shards and/or series:
“False history gets made all day, any day,
the truth of the new is never on the news
False history gets written every day

the lesbian archaeologist watches herself
sifting her own life out from the shards she’s piecing,
asking the clay all questions but her own.”
