father lying moving
My father's body lies in a stone tomb high on a hill. People walk by, pause, think their own thoughts about him and move on, back to their own lives. I can never move on. He is everywhere.
father feelings want
I have a feeling of reverence about my father being in his 80s - a feeling that I want to whisper, take soft steps, not intrude too much. He's like a stately old cathedral to me now.
veteran conspiracy obsessed
I would not call myself a veteran conspiracy theorist. Or an obsessed one. I pretty much peaked on the whole conspiracy theory thing in the '60s, with the grassy knoll, who really killed JFK, and who ordered the hit on Lee Harvey Oswald.
order parent finding-yourself
You have to separate yourself from your parents. You do. In order to find yourself.
writing character way
I'm very comfortable writing in the first person; it dives into the character in a way that's difficult if you're writing in the third person.
way would-be ethical
The most ethical way to deal with an unethical situation would be to simply say: 'We did something wrong.' But nobody in a family like mine would ever respond like this.
father glasses shoes
The house I grew up in had large plate-glass windows, which birds frequently crashed into headfirst. My father helped me assemble a bird hospital, consisting of a few shoe boxes, some old rags, and tiny dishes for water and food.
summer children swimming
When I was a child, our summer days were spent swimming; chlorine in my hair was like perfume to me.
struggle thinking alzheimers
I think the earlier stages of Alzheimer's are the hardest. Particularly because the person knows that they are losing awareness. They're aware that they're losing awareness, and you see them struggling.
bit deep love september understand
After September 11, I got to understand a little bit of his deep love for this country.
