O Molly…dearest Molly Ivins! My life without you will be like a desolate desert. After falling in love with you years ago, after my sad eyes came in touch with the vibrations of your powerful words for the first time, I was hoping, one day, to have the honor and pleasure to meet you in person. You departed too soon before my love for you was consummated… sad for me and for the shattered humanity you worked hard to heal… you will be terribly missed, and may your beautiful soul rest in the peace you worked so hard to bring to our non-peaceful world!

I’m so grateful for Mollly Ivan’s. She was always on the side of sanity. She wrote with humor about those who were mean spirited. She gave many the courage to stand up to those who are “ridiculous.” Thank you Molly!

I liked Molly Ivins. Good soul. Good Thinker.

Don’t mourn, organize.

She was a true voice of sanity in a world gone mad. Molly fought the good fight right to the end - I hope we honor her spirit by not giving in or giving up. She’d be disappointed if we do.

I will miss Molly’s sharp wit and strong spirit.  She was an inspiration for us all. We have lost a great spokesperson, and a champion for the underdog.
Good bye Molly, you will be missed.

Just rest in PEACE ! If you met our troops died in vain in Iraq somewhere in the other world, please tell them that we really miss them a lot.

Why couldn’t it have been George Bush instead? The world would have been a better place!

I’m stunned - a beloved family member has died…I’ve been reading Molly’s columns for so long - learning and laughing from every one. How I will miss her. We must, every one of us, carry on her torch.  Speak Truth bravely, never forgetting to find the ridiculous and the hilarious - but never flinching in the face of evil or stupidity.  She was a shining star, leading all who found her and loved her on upward to being a better self.  The Light is much dimmer in the world today.

Molly, this American will surely miss your writing.
