Dawn Powell: Love, dear friends, begins with curiosity.

A novel is like a gland pill — it nips off the cream of my hysterics and gets them running on track in a book where they belong instead of rioting all over my person. Dawn Powell

“I cannot exist without the oxygen of laughter.”
Dawn Powell 

“All Americans come from Ohio originally, if only briefly.”
Dawn Powell
“Friendship in youth represents sympathy without understanding; in age, understanding without sympathy.”
Dawn Powell, The Diaries, 1931-1965
