"While it may be preferable for the Joker to be dead; it may not be morally right for Batman to kill him."

I love this debate because morally  if the Joker is to be punished it should be through justice, not violence.

"I spend a great deal of my time thinking about the power of language- the way it can evoke an emotion, a visual image, a complex idea, or a simple truth."

Amy Tan always had to translate for her mother, even if it was about adult things, like her mothers profession. I can't imagine having to translate for someone all the time. I would love to be able to speak a second language.

Living in Oklahoma we experience many storms and know all about tornado seasons. Thankfully I've never been in a tornado. Crenshaw's writing defines physical senses to the storms.

Grace Welte's captures the experience of growing up on a tobacco farm. Her descriptions are very familiar because I am also from Kentucky.

"The sun is just now above the haze of morning, illuminating and warming the air around us. I can tell by the way the humid air feels--sticky and stifling--and by how seamless the sky appears in the morning light. "

Dillard's writing is extremely descriptive. One can actually visualize the bugs. Engaging the readers by pacific details such as: "The spiders skin lie on their sides, translucent and ragged, their legs drying in knots."
