Margaret Atwood Quotes About Bones

• Love blurs your vision; but after it recedes, you can see more clearly than ever. It's like the tide going out, revealing whatever's been thrown away and sunk: broken bottles, old gloves, rusting pop cans, nibbled fishbodies, bones. This is the kind of thing you see if you sit in the darkness with open eyes, not knowing the future.

  Margaret Atwood

  Eye, Knowing, Broken

• You want the truth, of course. You want me to put two and two together. But two and two doesn’t necessarily get you the truth. Two and two equals a voice outside the window. Two and two equals the wind. The living bird is not its labeled bones.

  Margaret Atwood

  Wind, Two, Voice

• Clava una pala en la tierra en casi cualquier lugar y alguna que otra cosa horrible saldrá a la luz. Bien por el comercio, nos nutrimos de huesos; sin ellos no habría historias.

• All Creatures know that some must die That all the rest may take and eat; Sooner or later, all transform Their blood to wine, their flesh to meat. But Man alone seeks Vengefulness, And writes his abstract Laws on stone; For this false Justice he has made, He tortures limb and crushes bone. Is this the image of a god? My tooth for yours, your eye for mine? Oh, if Revenge did move the stars Instead of Love, they would not shine.

  Margaret Atwood

  Crush, Stars, Revenge
