"There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening that is translated through you into action and because there is only one of you in all of time this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist in any other medium and it will be lost. It is not your business to determine how good it is, nor how valuable, nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours, clearly and directly, to keep the channel open."A Martha Graham quote kept and referred to often by Ursula Nordstrom, longtime children's book editor at Harper Collins. A book is just being published of her wonderful letters. She was definitely a contrarienne.
You can read some of the letters from the book and more about her here.
