Midori Snyder quotes
-
“To deny ones' true nature and the gifts given you by the gods is to tempt disaster. You cannot hide behind the mask forever.”
-- Midori Snyder -
“The tale of the Monkey Girl gave me wat I needed most at a critical time in my life: the image of the creative and complex woman, unique to herself but willing to share those considerable gifts with a man capable of intuiting the wealth of her worth hidden beneath the skin. But more than that, the Monkey Girl also suggested that I need not be afraid of the fragile happily-ever-after, that I had resources of my own, and that I would not have to contort myself into a restrictive social role for fear of losing that fairytale ending.”
-- Midori Snyder
