Jeanne, I fell asleep among the paintings, where I could sit for many days worshipping your portrait. I fell in love with your portrait, Jeanne, because it will never change. I have such a fear of seeing you grow old, Jeanne, I fell in love with an unchanging you that will never be taken away from me.

Hell begins with a grumbling mood, always complaining, always blaming others... but you are still distinct from it. You may even criticize it in yourself and wish you could stop it. But there may come a day when you can no longer. Then there will be no you left to criticize the mood or even to enjoy it, but just the grumble itself, going on forever like a machine.

The savior is that much great, as you’re small, insignificant and unworthy. Anri Begrson writes: “It’s not true that faith can move mountains. On the contrary, the main thing in faith is the ability not to notice anything, even the moving of the mountain in front of you. It’s like a hermetic screen, fully... Amos Oz
Tom Robbins quote: "If a girl wants to grow up to be a cowgirl, she ought to be..."
If a girl wants to grow up to be a cowgirl, she ought to be able to do it, or else this world ain't worth living in. Tom Robbins
Boris Pasternak quote: "No one makes history, no one sees it happen, no one sees the..."
No one makes history, no one sees it happen, no one sees the grass grow. Boris Pasternak
Thornton Wilder quote: "Money is like manure; it's not worth a thing unless it's..."
Money is like manure; it's not worth a thing unless it's spread around encouraging young things to grow. Thornton Wilder
You are not permitted to kill a woman who has wronged you, but nothing forbids you to reflect that she is growing older every minute. Ambrose Bierce
If in my life I fail completely to heed others, solely out of a desire to be 'devout' and to perform my 'religious duties', then my relationship with God will also grow arid. It becomes merely 'proper', but loveless. Joseph Ratzinger
I bequeath myself to the dirt to grow from the grass I love. If you want me again look for me under your boot-soles. You will hardly know who I am or what I mean. But I shall be good health to you nonetheless. And filter and fibre your blood. Walt Whitman
