Travelers are always discoverers, especially those who travel by air. There are no signposts in the sky to show a man has passed that way before. There are no channels marked. The flier breaks each second into new uncharted seas.

Anne Morrow Lindbergh
I do not like talking casually to people - it does not interest me - and most of them are unwilling to talk at all seriously.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Great problems that face the world today in both the private and the public sphere cannot be solved by women – or by men – alone. They can only be surmounted by men and women side by side.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
For it is not merely the trivial which clutters our lives but the important as well
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Forsythia is pure joy. There is not an ounce, not a glimmer of sadness or even knowledge in forsythia. Pure, undiluted, untouched joy.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
I am beginning to respect the apathetic days. Perhaps they're a necessary pause: better to give in to them than to fight them at your desk hopelessly then you lose both the day and your self-respect. Treat them as physical phenomena -- casually -- and obey them.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
I would like to achieve a state of inner spiritual grace from which I could function and give as I was meant to in the eye of God.
