quashing it

Tobias Wolff to Mary Karr:
Don't approach your history as something to be shaken for it's cautionary fruit... Tell your stories, and your story will be revealed... Don't be afraid of appearing angry, small-minded, obtuse, mean, immoral, amoral, calculating, or anything else. Take no care for your dignity. Those were hard things to come by, and I offer them to you for what they may be worth.
