Mary Oliver's quotes
About Mary Oliver
Mary Oliver was the poet who invited us to kneel in the grass and finally pay attention to the wild, vibrant world we're always too busy to see. She was a quiet prophet of the everyday, turning the sight of a grasshopper or the sound of a goose call into profound lessons on life, love, and belonging. With a notebook in one hand and a sense of wonder in the other, she didn't just write poems—she wrote instructions for living a life that is awake, grateful, and fiercely in love with this "wild and precious" world. To read Mary Oliver is to remember how to breathe, and her words feel like a quiet revolution for the soul.
