Clarissa Pinkola Estes quotes about

We all wish to be brave and strong in the face of disaster. We all wish to be looked up to for our endurance and efforts to help others.

Latina women are proud to be called Mrs. That simply means that we have a family.
simple creative upheaval
Artfulness is not simple entertainment, especially during upheaval, unleashing creative life is sacred duty.
moon drawing perspective
Ritual is one of the ways in which humans put their lives in perspective, whether it be Purim, Advent, or drawing down the moon. Ritual calls together the shades and specters in people's lives, sorts them out, puts them to rest.
running circles air
Wolves never look more funny than when they have lost the scent and scrabble to find it again: they hop in the air; they run in circles, they plow up the ground with their noses . . . .
art moments stolen
Art is not meant to be created in stolen moments only.
heart years waiting
Do not lose heart. We were made for these times.....For years we have been learning, practicing, been in training for...and just waiting to meet on this exact plain of engagement.
failure causes reluctance
It's not the failure that holds us back but the reluctance to begin over again that causes us to stagnate.
