Stillness
Pilgrim at Tinker Creek
Annie Dillard
Synopsis
A year of looking, really looking, at a small creek in Virginia. Dillard turns attention itself into a spiritual practice, and the natural world into a place of terror and wonder.
Lines we underlined
“How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives.”
“Beauty and grace are performed whether or not we will sense them.”
From the circle
“Made me put my phone in a drawer and go sit by a tree for an hour.”
