Cheryl Strayed Quotes:
Ocupation: Novelist
Life: b. September 17, 1968
Birthday: September 17
It isn't enough to have had an interesting or hilarious or tragic life. Art isn't anecdote. It's the consciousness we bring to bear on our lives. For what happened in the story to transcend the limits of the personal, it must be driven by the engine of what the story means.
