Some Sue Monk Kidd's quotes. Goto "Sue Monk Kidd's quotation" section for more.I think there must be a place inside of us where dreams go and wait their turn.
Tags: Dreams, Place, WaitI learned a long time ago that some people would rather die than forgive. It's a strange truth, but forgiveness is a painful and difficult process. It's not something that happens overnight. It's an evolution of the heart.
Tags: Heart, Time, TruthA lot of time you write out of some unconscious place. I try to trust what is coming and where it wants to take me.
Tags: Time, Trust, TryI eventually found that the soul is more than an immortal commodity to win and save. It is the repository of the inner divine, the truest part of us.
Tags: Found, Soul, WinI've always been a journal-keeper. I've always tried to write about how I'm experiencing life, and my feelings and thoughts.
Tags: Feelings, Life, ThoughtsIt's always been my hope that I would write a story that would inspire and would connect with people in a way that would touch hearts.
Tags: Hope, Story, WriteNovels attempt to render human experience; that's really all they are. They are meant to convey empathy for the character.
Tags: Character, Experience, HumanThe True Self is not our creation, but God's. It is the self we are in our depths. It is our capacity for divinity and transcendence.
Tags: God, Self, TrueWhen compassion wakes up in us, we find ourselves more willing to become vulnerable, to take the risk of entering the pain of others.
Tags: Become, Others, PainAs an adolescent, I went to charm school, where I learned to pour tea and relate to boys, which, as I recall, meant giving them the pickle jar to unscrew, whether it was too hard for me or not.
Tags: Giving, Hard, SchoolGradually it occurred to me that we spend a great deal of life asleep and that dreams are little narratives, little stories. I thought, 'Who's choreographing this stuff?'
Tags: Dreams, Great, LifeI came to believe that my true identity goes beyond the outer roles I play. It transcends the ego. I came to understand that there is an Authentic 'I' within - an 'I Am,' or divine spark within the soul.
Tags: Ego, True, UnderstandI never know how to give advice to a writer because there's so much you could say, and it's hard to translate your own experience. But of course, I always try. The main thing that I usually end up saying is to read a lot. To read a great deal and to learn from that.
Tags: End, Experience, GreatI think many people need, even require, a narrative version of their life. I seem to be one of them. Writing memoir is, in some ways, a work of wholeness.
Tags: Life, Work, WritingI vividly remember the summer of 1964 with its voter registration drives, boiling racial tensions, and the erupting awareness of the cruelty of racism. I was never the same after that summer.
Tags: After, Racism, RememberStories are amazing and powerful because they can resonate with people depending on their needs and experiences and speak truths we need to hear in that moment in time.
Tags: Amazing, Powerful, TimeThere's a gap somehow between empathy and activism. Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. spoke of 'soul force' - something that emanates from a deep truth inside of us and empowers us to act. Once you identify your inner genius, you will be able to take action, whether it's writing a check or digging a well.
