Memorable Karr quotes from her acid, crystalline memoir, "Lit":

"A great poem could flood me with certainty that there was something good in the world.  Or somebody out there knew who I was even if we'd never met -- or never would meet."

"Whatever you want emotionally, you have to start giving away."

"Maybe all any of us wants is to feel singled out for some long, sweet, quenching draft of love, some open-throated guzzling of it...."
