“I think we need to be put back in touch with our childhood … to be reminded of what’s important, like memories about people we loved, or things that happened to us that affected our lives, things we can laugh about and shed a few tears about ... I think storytelling is a way of saying ‘I love you.’ I love you enough to tell you something that means a great deal to me.” Kathryn Tucker Windham
