"I have a sordid past."

-- Dar Williams

“Folk Music is the map of singing.”
“There are many resistance movements in the world, like the IRA for instance. But it is only Islamic resistance movements that are put on the terrorist list. This is what I am saying.”
“Iâ€™m not saying this is an absolute but in a way, if youâ€™re not having kids â€“ who gives a damn? Love who you want. Isnâ€™t that what we say? Gay marriage â€“ love who you want? If itâ€™s your brother or sister itâ€™s super-weird, but if you look at it, youâ€™re not hurting anybody except every single person who freaks out because youâ€™re in love with one another.”
“Everybody talking 'bout heaven ain't going there!”
“Christendom never came from an unbroken grave. It would have been buried in that grave, as Judas thought it was going to be, and as the Jews thought it was going to be, except there had been a resurrection from the dead. Then you can explain Christendom, churches, and literatures, if Christ rose again; but otherwise they cannot be explained at all. Our whole civilization rests on the broken Cross of the Master, and it is incredible that a civilization like this, in a world advancing steadily for eighteen centuries, has been founded on a lie.”
“How can one change one's entire life and build a new one on one moment of love? And yet, that's what you make me want to close my eyes and do.”
“I find that when I've seen a certain number of people my mind becomes like an old match box -- the part one strikes on, I mean.”
“Never surrender opportunity to security.”
