More quotes by Anne Morrow Lindbergh

Anne Morrow Lindbergh
I must write it all out, at any cost. Writing is thinking. It is more than living, for it is being conscious of living.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Love is a force.... It is not a result it is a cause. It is not a product it produces.

Woman can best refind herself by losing herself in some kind of creative activity of her own.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
One can get just as much exultation in losing oneself in a little thing as in a big thing. It is nice to think how one can be recklessly lost in a daisy.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
After all, I don't see why I am always asking for private, individual, selfish miracles when every year there are miracles like white dogwood.
