Marguerite Young quotes
" A good writer cannot avoid having social consciousness. I don't mean this about small pieces of writing, but about a big book. If it's a big book, there has to be more than one undertow. "

Marguerite Young
" A lawyer I once knew told me of a strange case, a suffragette who had never married. After her death, he opened her trunk and discovered 50 wedding gowns. "

Marguerite Young
" All creatures are flawed, but out of the flaw may come the universe. "

Marguerite Young
" All my writing is about the recognition that there is no single reality. But the beauty of it is that you nevertheless go on, walking towards utopia, which may not exist, on a bridge which might end before you reach the other side. "

Marguerite Young
" All the books I have written have been one book, from the beginning. "

Marguerite Young
" At the age of 18 all young poets are sure they will be dead at 21 - of old age. "

Marguerite Young
" Dreiser... I love... and almost wouldn't speak to anyone who ever attacked him. "

Marguerite Young
" I bear a heavy gift. "

Marguerite Young
" I believe that all my work explores the human desire or obsession for utopias, and the structure of all my works is the search for utopias lost and rediscovered. "

Marguerite Young
" I don't believe there can be a poetic novel without political consciousness. I have a strong political conscience. "

Marguerite Young
" I had a book, which was stolen, the art of the life of the character, in which you present a whole life in three of four pages. I used that method. "

Marguerite Young
" I had read the histories of mountain climbers, of suffragette captains, of travelers to the Middle East... all the ladies who went to the Middle East. I'd like to go myself. I didn't invent anything in my book. I didn't need to. "

Marguerite Young
" I knew Anais Nin, who called me after I had been away for a few years. She was seeking help because at that time no one would give her a decent review. She was made fun of. "

Marguerite Young
" I like Gertrude Stein, and spent two weeks with her at the University of Chicago. "

Marguerite Young
" I never fantasized or invented a thing, not one thing. I knew every single thing I ever wrote about. "
