    that tomorrow a new walk is a new walk.”
    —Archie Randolph Ammons (b. 1926)

    “As the Americans slaughter millions of turkeys every year for the celebration of their deliverance, the Indians, who should be celebrated as saviors, have long been slaughtered. There was even a time when a white man was paid a very decent price for every Indian scalp he could produce.”
    —Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)

    “Every day, in this mostly male world, you have to figure out, “Do I get this by charming somebody? By being strong? Or by totally allowing my aggression out?” You’ve got to risk failure. The minute you want to keep power—you’ve become subservient, somebody who does work you don’t believe in.”
    —Paula Weinstein (b. 1945)
