    “Your Dollar is your only Word,

    To make you see, but your are blind;
    You cannot leave it long enough
    To look before you or behind.”
    —Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

    “I doubt that I would have taken so many leaps in my own writing or been as clear about my feminist and political commitments if I had not been anointed as early as I was. Some major form of recognition seems to have to mark a woman’s career for her to be able to go out on a limb without having her credentials questioned.”
    —Ruth Behar (b. 1956)
