About This Quote

Valentine reminds us that to be fully human is to be both a story teller and a story dweller. By telling stories, we can connect with others and share our own experiences. We can also use the power of stories as a way to reflect on our lives as well as those of others. In our minds, we allow ourselves to experience the same things as those who have written about them. And, by spending time with those who have made love into art, we can also learn from those great writers how to do the same.
