Anne Morrow Lindbergh
I feel we are all islands - in a common sea.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Why do progress and beauty have to be so opposed?
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
A simple enough pleasure, surely, to have breakfast alone with one's husband, but how seldom married people in the midst of life achieve it.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Woman's normal occupations in general run counter to creative life, or contemplative life, or saintly life.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
For it is not merely the trivial which clutters our lives but the important as well
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
These bright roofs, these steep towers, these jewel-lakes, these skeins of railroad line - all spoke to her and she answered. She was glad they were there. She belonged to them and they to her.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Marriage should, I think, always be a little bit hard and new and strange. It should be breaking your shell and going into another world, and a bigger one.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
