A Notable, Inspiring Quote

This timely quote just came in, 
passed along by a mail art pal in Canada:

"I know the world is bruised and bleeding, 
and though it is important 
not to ignore its pain, it is also critical 
to refuse to succumb to its malevolence.  
Like failure, chaos contains information 
that can lead to knowledge---even wisdom.

"This is precisely the time 
when artists go to work.  
There is no time for despair, 
no place for self-pity, 
no need for silence, 
no room for fear.  
We speak, we write, we do language.  
That is how civilizations heal."  
- Toni Morrison -
