Dearest Charles--I found a box of this paper at the back of a bureau so I must write to you as I am mourning for my lost innocence. It never looked like living. The doctors despaired of it from the start... I am never quite alone. Members of my family keep turning up and collecting luggage and going away again, but the white raspberries are ripe.

Guarding others' lives, the ecology and the earth is the same as protecting one's own life. By like token, wounding them is the same thing as wounding oneself.

Everyone had told her, since she became a princess-in-training, that she was very likely the most beautiful woman in the world. Now she was going to be the richest and the most powerful as well. Don't expect too much from life, Buttercup told herself as she rode along. Learn to be satisfied with what you have. William Goldman
There's nothing like a song about lost love to remind you how everything precious can slip from the hinges where you've hung it so careful. Sue Monk Kidd
Margaret Thatcher quote: "If you just set out to be liked, you will be prepared to..."
If you just set out to be liked, you will be prepared to compromise on anything at anytime, and would achieve nothing. Margaret Thatcher
I'm equally sure, however, that I won't walk into a lamp-post while reading {literature}, like I did with {a legal thriller} all those years ago; you don't walk into lamp-posts when you're reading literary novels, do you? Nick Hornby
You don't necessarily have to write to be a poet. Some people work in gas stations and they're poets. I don't call myself a poet, because I don't like the word. I'm a trapeze artist. Bob Dylan

The heart, like the mind, has a memory. And in it are kept the most precious keepsakes. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
